Teaching Lies

I just saw Glenn Younkin's social study proposal for Virginia. I don't know how young parents feel about all this crap today, but I must say that if I was early in my career and had kids, I would be very reluctant to take a job in a place like Virginia, Florida, Texas, or some other states. I wouldn't want my kids being taught outright lies in school. 

I say this as a person who went to elementary and high school in the 1950s and '60s, and was taught lies and half truths about American history. Schools were kind of getting to where they were teaching more accurate history, but now the Christian Nationalists want to go back to the same lies that I was taught sixty years ago.

Not good.
