There's a group of Texas teachers that want to change history or at least the words describing history that they teach in school.

The Texas State Board of Education is now working on a way to change the word "slavery" to "involuntary relocation" during social studies in any class from kindergarten through second grade.

This comes after the state legislature passed a bill to stop teaching things that make students feel uncomfortable. The Board will make a final decision on that and other issues in November.
