This appears to be a forthcoming 2019 edition of an existing textbook from the global education publishing giant Pearson, whose materials are ubiquitous. The friend highlighted some sections that show clear bias against political conservatives, President Trump and his administration, and Americans of faith. Here are some transcriptions from those images.

No it’s not.
Growing up while Reagan was president was very cool.
Written History is nothing more than a viewpoint by the authors. It is subject to change over each decade or more by other views after the undiscovered facts (previously hidden and censored) come into play. Today’s written history may become fiction in a couple of generations.
The writers’ use of the passive voice is heinous.
It would be fine to say that the inner city ghetto dwellers of color viewed police forces as such-and-such. That allows room for an account of other citizens viewing them differently.
But to raise this point would be to get screamed at for “oh, aren’t you sympathetic to these poor poor people”?
Absolutely.
George Orwell warned us:
‘Who controls the past, controls the future: who controls the present controls the past’.
