This is a crisis we'd better get a handle on before it's too late -- if it isn't already! Posted on 04/14/2018 3:33:35 PM PDT by davikkm
A soon-to-be-released updated edition of an Advanced Placement (AP) U.S. History textbook teaches students that white Christian Americans are finding it “difficult to adjust” to becoming a minority and puts forward the perception that President Donald Trump’s election occurred because his apparent “racism connected with a significant number of primary voters.”
James Fraser’s By the People: A History of the United States, 2ndEdition, is published by Pearson and has a 2019 copyright date.
Alex Clark – co-host of the Indiana-based morning radio Joe and Alex Show– tweeted photos of the cover and several pages of the book that she reports were sent to her by a friend in Minnesota.
“In case you didn’t think there was an effort going on in public schools to indoctrinate kids with an anti-conservative agenda, a friend of mine took pictures and highlighted parts of this AP US History book,” she wrote. “She says, ‘This was the new ‘sample’ AP US HISTORY book sent to my school. The chapter mentions Bengazi [sic] (no ACTUAL details what happened) and mentions her ‘private email server.’”
The book pages that were photographed included a paragraph that describes Trump’s cabinet as wealthy, and “largely white males, more so than any presidential cabinet since Ronald Reagan.”

Homeschoolers buy up old used textbooks because they are much better. The Catholic primary schools use older textbooks also.
This is a crisis we'd better get a handle on before it's too late -- if it isn't already! America is the greatest nation in the world! We’re here to change all that.

“This whole discussion of race is stupid as the day is long”
You are correct. I think we have cultural differences rather than race differences. Problem is that the backward, barbaric cultures that are being allowed to flood into America aren’t white so it’s easy to differentiate on race.
Anyone that supports the things that make America such a desirable place to live is fine with me.
The ultimate goal should be no special identification based on religion and race and ethnic background. The left can’t help themselves though to make most of us the focus by all of this to purposely divide us.
If we Christians find ourselves on the losing end of this debate we need to become the real victim that others have made us and others use.
The truth is that demographic shifts in the US and Europe have come about, in large measure, because the Christians there, irrespective of their race, believe in being charitable to others. It's what has driven the development of a welfare safety net, and leads to a ton of donations to other nations and people in need. It's also what has led to the welcoming of a huge number of immigrants. I'm not saying it's only Christianity that has led to these things, but Christianity has contributed in an incredibly large way.
The racism is coming from those who want whites and Christians to become a minority in the US and Europe. Why is that not racist? Further, what is wrong with anyone from any country not wanting to have their way of life changed and to become a minority in their own land? Of course I want the US to remain a Judeo-Christian nation. It's what my belief system is based upon, and what I'm familiar with. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
I agree. I employ many Mexicans in my business, I do voluntary E-verify, my guys speak English fluently too. I always tell my customers that and also tell them my Spanish disctiinary only consists of what’s on the menu at my local Mexican restaurant.
I can’t wait until I am in minority . They I can not work, sit around smoking drinking and whoring, get my free sh**, use affirmative-action , and blame the obviously racist majority for my grievances . Whoo...hooo.
Before Christian Era and Christian Era
Long before whites become a minority, the welfare state would collapse due to too many tax consumers and not enough tax payers. How many kids are underclass women going to produce, if they were faced with supporting the kids themselves?
Jesus deserves more than that.
And replace it with what?
Muslims who will behead you if you are gay or infidel, treat their women like property, have genital mutilation so their women will not be promiscuous.
And angry blacks who blames whites for everything bad in their lives because the Democrats tell them so or illegal aliens who break our laws and have not loyalty to this country except for the free stuff they can get.
That day has not happened yet.
These knobs are already treating us like it.
Because wwiii has begun and its against white people. Particularly white men.
1) I know for a fact that hundreds of high schools use our “A Patriot’s History of the United States,” most in preparation for AP.
2) I point out to parents that AP is a way to get out of taking the college class, but contrary to perceptions, taking the classes might be less biased. For example, in most schools, the intro classes are NOT taught by the far left tenured faculty. At my former university, almost all US intro/survey classes were taught by part timers.
It is an interesting fact that often the part timers and/or lecturers are far more conservative than the tenured faculty. For example, one university I’m familiar with had 2 Republicans out of a tenured faculty of 20, but out of about 10 part-timers/lecturers, at times fully half would be conservatives and/or Republicans, sometimes 7/10.
So despite the allure of “getting out of the class” to take other things, students might want to skip AP and take the class. And yes, I taught AP at the high school level, too.
WW111 is against white, Christian, heterosexual males.
Go play your Race-Card somewhere else......Nobody really cares to hear about your cry-baby antics.
Back in the Neanderthal era (c. 1976) when I took AP US History the textbook was the same as the one every other upper level class. The teacher supplemented heavily but there was no leftist drivel coming from Mr. Abel.
It is not so kind to Christian White Hetero women either.
If it happened naturally that would be one thing. I think what people are not happy about (at least me) is having it forced upon them in bus loads or more at a time. Seeing them get assitances many of us were not/are not eligible for and things like that. Seeing areas of towns in my daily travels just change in the look of population within a month or two, it’s creepy and I’m not sure how it happened.
