Do students in Oregon get taught that their state was founded with the law that Black people were banned from moving to the state?

The reality is that things like expulsions of Black people and sundown towns were indeed so common that it’s probably better for every US student to learn generally how thorough and widespread the discrimination was, rather than just single incidents.

I think this dataset is better just removing the MLS. In grouping the North American major sports leagues the “Big Four” of the NFL, MLB, NBA, and NHL are much more commonly used.

And if you use those you get the funny effect of Los Angeles having fewer championships than Montreal, who is running on hockey alone.
