State school standards banish lessons about World War I, II, Holocaust, Civil War
World Net Daily ^ | 1/16/2021 | Bob Unruh

New standards proposed by the Minnesota Department of Education would banish lessons about World War I, World War II, the Holocaust, the Civil War, the American Revolution, communism, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

Replacing those significant history topics will be "systemic racism," how democracy has "excluded certain groups," an "awareness" of "the LGBTQ+ community" and how the disenfranchisement of freed blacks during Reconstruction connects to "persistent discrimination and inequity" today.

I bought some homeschooling curriculum text books, no kids or grandkids, but nieces and nephew. I need the refresher myself.

Wait, I seem to recall all this happening in the early 30’s. It can be stopped,by three stages, Home school, Home school and Home School. If that don’t work, Community private Schools. We’re a nation of immigrants, each group has it’s own American history to be shared. Whether from the past or the history of the future. I don’t read fiction, there are too many stories out there that are real, I don’t need fictional stories.

Honestly, don’t we get to a point that our schools are just
criminally liable?

The left will outlaw homeschool if they can. We have been discussing how to handle it when it happens. It will depend on if our state tells the feds to go pound sand.

It’s not a textbook per se, but a good one is Larry Schweikart’s “A Patriot’s History of the United States.”

I have had people on FR try to argue that.

Apparently not doing business with a nation that is engaged in a genocidal war with its neighbors full justifies a sneak attack.

Never could figure that out.

“Pull your kids out of public schools.”

The best thing that ever happened to our grand kids was going to good private schools, 9-12!

An uncle on their mother’s side provided a large % of the costs, then their parents and we made up the difference.

That enabled them to be able/qualified to go to great out of state colleges or the few good ones in California.

Are they going to properly dispose of the old history textbooks?

“History” will always be written by those with the “isms” and history first and foremost starts at day zero of the revolution.

If you aren’t taught this country’s history, then you won’t have any problem smashing its historical monuments to bits.
