If the producers of a Black History Month item knew as much as a Nevada history teacher, the item would not have been pulled from the shelves at Target.
The kit mislabeled three prominent figures in black history and made it all the way to store shelves before Tierra Espy blew the whistle.
Espy used a video posted to TikTok, to call out the flaws in the “Civil Rights Magnetic Learning Activity” kit. The video has more than 97,000 likes.
Espy, who uses the handle @issatete on TikTok, said that when she opened the kit, she found flaws in magnets that were supposed to be of sociologist and historian W.E.B. Du Bois; educator Booker T. Washington; and historian Carter G. Woodson.
Shoulda used an historian to get it right the first time.
It should be WHITE HISTORY MONTH !!!! SOLVED !!!!!
