Texas curriculum change will portray Islam as 'radical' and 'brutal'

Texas curriculum change will portray Islam as 'radical' and 'brutal' The Texas State Board of Education greenlit a new social studies curriculum on Friday that will teach high school students about how Islam is "radical" and "brutal". The move followed several hours of testimony by hundreds of people before the Republican-dominated board made its 8-4 decision about how to amend the way religions are taught across public schools in the state. The new curriculum will affect some five million students.
