Does that make sense? I completely agree with you and dream of a day when at least something taught in US is actually true and good. I know I am still pretty bitter about the pack of lies I was taught.

I understand, but I would like to know how many countries have it spelled out in their school curriculum. I for one was not taught that for the few years I went to school here. Maybe it is something worth looking into.

Very interesting. I see now what you are saying. Yes we have a history of Nationalism, but is it taught per se in curriculum? I know before & during WWII Germany and Japan did and we know how that went. And yes, I think the Soviet Union and China... I keep wishing the US was more progressive.

Exactly!, and this is the part that strikes a chord with me. And let's not forget Cuba. So how can we as a nation denounce those countries that are doing what Texas is trying to do? Are Conservatives so blind not to see this? |

I sincerely have no answer, it makes zero sense to me.

I would also like to know how those who reside in Texas feel about this. But in the scope of things that get passed in Texas, maybe this isn't a big deal to most. To me though, it means a whole new generation of trouble. |
