Why is teaching our history be such a stretch here. Everyone I have read or heard talk
about this subject has their heads up their butts. This country should have never let the education system in the hands of WHITE MALES. The
Republicans started this culture thing and what is missing from the teachings is plain old history of our country from the first day until this
day. The Republicans are against it because they are afraid they will look bad in the retelling. That is why their fore fathers skewed the history in the first place. They made them sound better than they are;
But it is abusive to children to not know their history. But I doubt that
that will change in the near future.My biggest love for reading brought
me closer to the truth of this country but I still find out things all the time
that I didn't know. Let's face it, a lot of things happened between than
and now. So maybe we get the history we can take at the time. Knowing the things that I know did not make me a flag waver to be sure but it did build me into the person I am today.
