>History and Civics should be taught by someone who is passionate about them. <
I was beyond fortunate. My senior year of high school was spent with an incredible history teacher. My first year in college, I had another wonderful professor in world history.
Those two educators are a huge part of the reason I found my way to FR.
Two years of “real history” is all it took! Lucky you. I only started to love history in my 40s!
