Reply to [OC] I asked Georgians (U.S.) if they learned in school about the 1912 racial cleansing in Forsyth County (GA), only 11% of respondents were taught this. by JPAnalyst
I grew up in atlanta and was also not taught about this, if you want more data! I knew Forsyth was a hotbed for Klan activity into the 90s but nothing else.

Similar question someone asked about Tulsa, a while back. I didn’t ask, I just tabulated the responses. https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/nrc7vm/oc_reddit_members_on_an_oklahoma_subreddit_were/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

>Do students in Oregon get taught that their state was founded with the law that Black people were banned from moving to the state?
I haven’t asked them. But if anyone wants to take on the project I’d love to know. I did tabulate responses when someone asked students in Oklahoma about Tulsa. I’ll dig that up and post it in this thread.

Then there was the disgraceful Trail of Tears which took place 60-80 years earlier. Georgia is such a welcoming place. No wonder Sherman knew what he had to do.

Before you get too upset, did you know about 24% of all enlisted military are on welfare programs because the government doesn’t pay them enough?
Wal mart looks More generous than the government many would argue should be regulating this by percentage and pure numbers. And the government takes in way more money than Walmart. It would take over 100 times the annual profits Walmart makes to pay just the defense budget, and they pay people that little.

Perhaps some countries who jail journalists for political reasons, but fewer of them, are actually worse because the government threat has been made clear?

Given the small sample size, I was curious about the confidence interval, which is (95% C.I.) 5.1% to 28.3%. I'd be curious to know how well the surveyed population matches that of Georgia.

As shareholder (not of Walmart) I voted against all pay increases for CEOs and alike when I could.

It does not translate to jailed journalists.
I thought it would be interesting to add another layer of information to the visualization by comparing CPJ reports with the UN Plan of Action on the Safety of Journalists and the Issue of Impunity.

Do students in Oregon get taught that their state was founded with the law that Black people were banned from moving to the state?
The reality is that things like expulsions of Black people and sundown towns were indeed so common that it’s probably better for every US student to learn generally how thorough and widespread the discrimination was, rather than just single incidents.

History gets glossed over constantly. I grew up in Massachusetts and we have a ton of history that wasn't covered at the state or county level. I always thought it was because the textbooks were not written by the state and the curriculum had a lot of American history that was focused at the federal level instead of state specific events.

-
dividends are paid out of net profits, so that doesn't change the $11 billion figure
-
$30+ million salary for someone running a machine that makes $11 Billion in a bad year.....as a shareholder, would you vote for that?

Walmart officially reports it as "costs of sales" in its earning release
