U.S. history takes drastic left turn this fall
.

This part I found Interesting so I went to the link which is WND and the story doesnt tell what exactly was done or why. They simply blame it all on liberals yadda yadda and interpretations of what THEY think the history shows and by coincidence its always negative.

But look at this. Jefferson was removed from History books IN TEXAS!! Of course they never mention that part. Oh but it must be the fault of LIBERALS in Texas. Anyway check out the link: Blogging the Social Studies Debate IV TFN Insider

Check out the quote:

Early in the day, member Cynthia Dunbar, R-Richmond, successfully moved to remove Thomas Jefferson from a list of philosophers in the World History standards, and added religious thinkers including John Calvin and Thomas Acquinas, and Sir William Blackstone, an influential English judge who wrote a lasting treatise on common law.

SBOE Removes Thomas Jefferson Blames Media The Texas Tribune

See this is what happens when the OP pulls bullshit from partisan sites. She is so busy making silly bullet points when her time would be better spent not owning herself with stupid shit.

So a REPUBLICAN in TEXAS removed Thomas Jefferson from the history books. WHEN PEOPLE COMPLAINED THEY BLAMED THE MEDIA!! Sound familiar?

"...the story doesnt tell what exactly was done or why."

How about you decide why....and whether or not it is correct in terms of the education of American children.

Think for yourself.
How's that for a plan?

1. This is the most disgusting post you have ever offered....if you thought it funny to conflate the United States to the Nazis.....it isn't.


2. 'Wounded Knee' is not what the America haters taught you it was.

Pop culture unfailingly paints the army as brutal killers, as in the famous South Dakota Wounded Knee ‘massacre,’ December 29, 1890. Robert Marshall Utley (born in 1929) is an author and historian who has written sixteen books on the history of the American West, including The Last Days of the Sioux Nation. Yale University Press, New Haven, CT (1963) in which he concludes that “the Indians fired at least 50 shots before the troops returned fire.”


You've become a disgusting little twerp.

You're a real pice aren't you. According to commanding Gen. Nelson A. Miles
who was actually there "half the Indian men were killed or wounded before they had a chance to get off any shots." and "While the Indian warriors and soldiers were shooting at close range, other soldiers used the Hotchkiss guns against the tipi camp full of women and children."

I've provided three or four sources that correct your misinterpretation.

Read them...and take notes.

Maybe the reason you don't see that much about conservatives in history is because they're always on the wrong side of history.

Well one thing is for sure, Leftism is always on the right side of history. For example, the wonderful USSR, China, N. Korea, Cuba, and other great nations where people live long prosperous and free lives.

Liberal leftist have a history of tyranny......Conservative history..you're welcome

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

Slavery was a universal human sin...which we ended with our founding....that is the actual true history the left hates...

You are honestly going to sit there and tell me that our Founders ended slavery????
Then why did our founders own slaves, and did so until their death? Not to forget theat many slaves were sold off to pay debts owed by the founder...

You just don't get it that these countries hated liberal ideology...

Thats funny since your entire OP wasnt reseached or you would've noticed that a REPUBLICAN in TEXAS removed Thomas Jefferson from the history books. WHEN PEOPLE COMPLAINED THEY BLAMED THE MEDIA!! Sound familiar?

You are blaming "the liberals"

Also, thinking for myself has nothing to do with WHY they made those changes. AND you're whole OP is about ripping off World Net Daily and quoting them verbatim.

 

[Moonglow]

Nothing new when you are educating yourself on styles and values of extremist right wing populists.

 

[Youch]

If you love this nation, and want your children to feel about it the way you do....you will find, sadly, that they will be corrupted by a Marxist history curriculum.
They will be taught that the rest of the world sees themselves as victims of America...and your children will be taught to see America through that lens: an evil, predatory nation.

Such is the result of the take-over by the 60s radicals....


How did it begin?

"The radicals of the sixties did not remain within the universities…They realized that the apocalypse never materialized. “…they were dropping off into environmentalism and consumerism and fatalism…I watched many of my old comrades apply to graduate school in universities they had failed to burn down, so they could get advanced degrees and spread the ideas that had been discredited in the streets under an academic cover.”
Collier and Horowitz, “Destructive Generation: Second Thoughts About The Sixties,” p. 294-295.


What did they want?

"The radicals were not likely to go into business or the conventional practice of the professions. They were part of the chattering class, talkers interested in policy, politics, culture. They went into politics, print and electronic journalism, church bureaucracies, foundation staffs, Hollywood careers, public interest organizations, anywhere attitudes and opinions could be influenced. And they are exerting influence.”
Robert H. Bork, “Slouching Toward Gomorrah,” p. 51





Having taken over the schools, at every level, and the media, the dissemination of information in the society, they had everything they needed to destroy what the Founders had given us.




And now, one more sign of how they despise the greatness of America, and mean to have that view indelibly impressed on the youth, is the change in the AP History exam, by the College Board.



1. " The College Board, ...has kicked off a national controversy by issuing a new and unprecedentedly detailed “Framework” for its AP U.S. History exam. This Framework will effectively force American high schools to teach U.S. history from a leftist perspective....the new AP U.S. History framework [is] closely tied to a movement of left-leaning historians that aims to “internationalize” the teaching of American history.... to “end American history as we have known it” by substituting a more “transnational” narrative for the traditional account.

2. ....also seeks to produce a generation of Americans more amendable to working through the United Nations and various left-leaning “non-governmental organizations” (NGOs) on issues like the environment and nuclear proliferation. A willingness to use foreign law to interpret the U.S. Constitution is likewise encouraged.




3. ... let’s have a closer look at its goals. NYU historian Thomas Bender is the leading spokesman ....Bender’s views can be found in his 2006 book, A Nation Among Nations: America’s Place in World History. ...

a. ... a thoroughgoing critic of American exceptionalism, the notion that America is freer and more democratic than any other nation, and for that reason, a model, vindicator, and at times the chief defender of ordered liberty and self-government in the world.

b. ... Bender wants to subordinate American identity to a cosmopolitan, “transnational” sensibility. ...Whereas the old U.S. history forged a shared national identity by emphasizing America’s distinctiveness, Bender hopes to encourage cosmopolitanism by “internationalizing” the American story.... Bender laments that history as taught in our schools has bred an “acceptance of the nation as the dominant form of human solidarity.”"

Agree....and so did Milton Friedman:
"I do not believe that the solution to our problem is simply to elect the right people. The important thing is to establish a political climate of opinion which will make it politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing. Unless it is politically profitable for the wrong people to do the right thing, the right people will not do the right thing either, or if they try, they will shortly be out of office.”

The brainwashing continues at Harvard....Notice one of these students says "what we've been learning recently"

These kids aren't taught proper American history. they are taught leftist propaganda. History should be taught without an ideology, but that's all liberals have. It's their faith, their religion. Nothing else matters but that. Which is the problem

You live in a fantasy world. Really, you do.
