Good grief !
Isn’t is bad enough they are diluting the learning of real history with this affirmative action tripe?
Students of history used to learn about the greatest leaders in world history, the events, war, and leaders which shaped the world we live in today.
But now it’s the above plus and Harriet Tubman! (because she was black and we couldn’t find or think of anyone else the right color who did anything)
Give me a break, Alexander the Great, Ceasar, Genghis Khan, Nero, King George the III, Queen Elizabeth, Gandhi, Lincoln, Churchill, Stalin, Hilter, and .... Harriet Tubman? !!!!! SERIOUSLY!!! On a historical scale Harriet Tubman’s life was about as important as the lady at church who runs the library!
If I were black ... I would be INSULTED this is the best they could come up with !
On the other hand, I could care less about Jackson, and never understood why he was on anything to begin with!
Lest we forget:
