This will divide us, but again, it began this last year.....it is being wrapped and packaged. Teachers are anti this movement, because they do not wish to deny our kids the truth.....they are not suggesting a direct lesson plan, although that could be plausible. Our history is a living and wonderful thing.....this movement is a P movement and frankly lying to our kids does not seem appropriate

We had actual segments in social sciences on the subject. It was an official part of our curriculum. I had no idea that it was being suppressed, and when I started seeing this "movement" to actually suppress it, I was surprised. I'm still a bit confounded by the whole thing. Why would anyone WANT to hide an important part of our history?
I honestly thought that went out with the whole "Columbus discovered America" nonsense (which we were finally told the truth about - in the 1970's, heh).
Seriously people. Suppressing history is SOOOOOO 1960's.
