You should check out thenewgreen's comment below with regards to Asians in America- particularly the Chinese. As for the rest of your comment, why would anyone want to be taught that they can trace themselves back to slavery? Why would you teach only what you call "black" history and not African history as well as African American history? The story you want to tell is, "Long ago you were slaves who came from some backwater place that no one cares about, but despite that some of you have done amazing things!" That's a pretty bad origin story, by my standards. Way worse than the one laid out in this article.
