This is good.
Since when does relating historical facts constitute being “promoted”?
Sorry, Telegraph; you’re coming across as a propoganda organ for communitsts.
You mean like what I was taught in school all those years ago. What’s wrong with that? The liberals had their turn and look how weak our educational system is. Something needs to happen.

Thank God they’re downplaying slavery. Maybe they could just refer to it as unpaid internships. Yea, that’s the ticket. It’ll make us feel better about ourselves.
I’m not sure what “Confederate values” are. Their values (religious concepts) were the same as those in the North. I can only speculate that they are trying to explain the concept of states rights, which was the issue, not slavery. Slavery was only seized on by Lincoln to provide a moral context. Note that Lincoln did not free the slaves in territories that did not succeed.
I was glad to hear they’ve dumped Henry Cisneros from the history books. I wondered if the old curriculum mentioned his mistress, and his lying to the FBI, his indictment on 18 counts of Conspiracy, his sweet plea deal, and his pardon by President Clinton.
