I’m sure the changes are bad, but maybe offer a few examples of what is wrong?

A humor writer did a satire on today's execrable US history texts. For example, he'd say,

"During the period leading up to the American Revolutionary War, Thomas Paine wrote a prorevolutionary pamphlet series, 'Common Sense.' It was so influential that John Adams said, 'Without the pen of the author of Common Sense, the sword of Washington would have been raised in vain.' In the meantime, women and minorities also did lots of important stuff."

A dozen or so years ago, I found and read newspaper archives from 1861 through 1865. I read the same articles from both Southern and Northern news services. Reading the slant from each side gave me insight to what probably actually happened and neither were what I was taught in school. I really hate revisionist history.

I recall that Michelle Obama announced that we would need to “change our history”. These people are serious.
