The ‘head up their crowd’ that has no use for those pesky things called FACTS, have a problem with teaching actual US history in our schools.

 German schools teach about the Nazis and Japanese students are given the facts about Japan’s role in WWII.

What are you(R) afraid of, as you want to whitewash our history(E)?

The United States of America is a country that exists today in large part because of the genocide of roughly 55 million people indigenous to this continent, as well as the enslavement of at least 4.4 million kidnapped or trafficked Africans.

The Constitution authored by a few dozen white enslavers counted Black people as 3/5ths of a human being, did not allow women to vote or hold political office, and, truly, only enumerated rights for white property-owning men.

Slavery in the Americas lasted from 1619 until the end of the Civil War in 1865. That’s 246 years. The Civil Rights Act was passed in 1964, which was only 57 years ago. It’s going to take a lot longer to reverse and erase the stains of racism than one-quarter of the time human beings were enslaved and sold like livestock on this continent.

The DNA of these real historic facts is woven into the fabric of our society, our laws, and indeed our founding documents. This is our reality, and, like it or not, if we don’t tell the truth about our country’s origin, we can never truly right the wrongs of the past and advance the project of forming a more perfect Union.

Too much, too controversial for your wimpy, FOX-soaked brain? Maybe a good ‘book burning’ would salve your bruised egos and warped sense of reality….
