There is a lot of discussion of the "whitewashing" of history in American schools but that hasn't been my experience. Most Americans don't know shit about American or world history - but they all know about slavery, Jim Crow Laws and segregation....even if they can't name more than 3 presidents. More history lessons is not the answer to racial divides. We could start having better dialogues if we get rid of the useless virtue signaling that goes along with Black History Month. #CrispyButtocks
