If someone tried to teach about Hypatia and her murder in US schools, someone would complain about it being "woke" and demand it stop.

Ah, Hypatia, one of history's first female teachers. Very ahead of her time and it's a pity that she was murdered but perhaps the world wasn't ready for women in the teaching business in her time.

Martin Verran

Hypatia's story should serve as a warning to the rest of humanity against becoming involved with religious fanatics.

I don't know much about the current status of British schools. Some of it may depend on how they treat the Empire in history class.

well that's commonly seen, even in today's world. Because some people want to be led, they like being lied to by their religious leader.

Did the institutions she worked at ever enforce any kind of harassment policy against students trying to win her affections? I can't imagine that even in late classical egypt there would have been zero consequences for a student behaving so brazenly inappropriately towards a member of the staff.

Next baghat singh would be great he the reason India independence movement took of in the early 1900 he almost venerated as a God like figure by the Sikh community but still no video for us to know about him and yes I know they're revolutionary like him arround the world
