Maybe I’m Not Seeing This Right
Once again, proving that batcrap crazy is contagious, Tennessee has decided that textbooks need reforming. Taking their signals from Mitt Romney, they are going to retroactively abolish American history.
A little more than a year after the conservative-led state board of education in Texas approved massive changes to its school textbooks to put slavery in a more positive light, a group of Tea Party activists in Tennessee has renewed its push to whitewash school textbooks. The group is seeking to remove references to slavery and mentions of the country’s founders being slave owners.
Can someone please tell me the positive light to slavery? I mean, were ice cream treats involved?
Thanks to Norma for the heads-up.
