Must be. I was just thinking that I'm confident that my kids will learn things differently when they get to American History than I did back in the early 2000s, and for the best. I'm just glad I have a couple of years, because my seven year old is probably getting tired of me describing things as "complicated."

From personal experience, going to a school in a liberal, northern state, we just speed ran certain parts, but at least they didn't deny bad stuff happened. I've heard that if you tour a southern plantation, the tour is very different if the group is all white verses if there's at least one Black person.
