Hostyk, 15 probably has never had a history class in school.

As a Southerner and a product of our public school system, I guarantee she has. It took getting out of school and a lot of individual research to figure out that everything that is taught about American History (then and today) either ignores the truth or downright misrepresents it. Due to my own experience, I am seriously considering home schooling.

As General Cleburne said " The victors write the history " The history in our schools isn't the history we in the south were taught by our grand parents.
