"They don't teach about them anymore."

Given the fact that schools, school libraries, colleges, public libraries and even bookstores, along with network producers and special interests are working to control what children and/or even adults have access to, and that textbook authors are working with a vengeance to neutralize our language to virtual meaninglessness, classic works of literature are being politcally corrected or banned altogether and anything with a Christian theme is increasingly "unconsitutional," wouldn't it be great to put together a politically incorrect library? Perhaps it doesn't seem to many to be necessary right now, but at the rate that we are losing our freedons, it won't be long until the only real history books, literary classics and inspirational works will be in private collections. This is true for movies and likely some music as well.

This is a resource everyone needs. But there is a cultural vacuum surrounding the race issue, and it's important to give these kids something which is unifying across racial/tribal divisions. The current instituitionalized PC crap enforces isolation and leads to glorification of all forms of racism.

Instead of starting a "white peoples" club because they feel isolated, these kids ought to be promoting an All-American club, open to anyone who is willing to put racial/tribal identity in second place to American cultural identity. When they search for a source of information on this issue, this is what the missing cultural heritage and foundation they need.

I've often wondered why the ancient library at Alexandria was destroyed. You've given me some fresh ideas why.
