Seeing that it's 2018, it's safe to say that everyone who isn't a total racist sociopath believes that slavery was and is bad. Like, 100 percent bad. Really terrifyingly, horrifically bad.But apparently one fourth grade teacher in Wisconsin was looking for some alternative theories after asking the class to list three "good" and "bad" reasons for slavery in a recent homework assignment. Hey, got to hear both sides, right?On Thursday's Desus & Mero, the hosts talked about the offensive question and how the Christian school responded. Then things took an interesting turn, and Desus and Mero went on a wild tangent about George Washington Carver, Chris Hayes, and unnecessary peanut inventions.You can watch the latest episode of Desus & Mero for free online now, and be sure to catch new episodes weeknights at 11 PM on VICELAND.
