given the way they’ve relabeled the trail of tears the great march and the history books being taught in schools right now say the native Americans chose to relocate to the oklohoma reservations i thought Hollywood writers WERE writing the history books……

We’d be better off if Hollywood was writing our history books. Kids are being fed a whitewashed, more “patriotic” version of history now that glosses over or completely ignores any nasty bits of our past that portray us in a less than favorable light. It’s shocking that until recently, with shows like Watchmen and Lovecraft Country bringing it to light, how many Americans were unaware of the Tulsa massacre and the burning of Black Wall Street. The surest way to repeat the mistakes of the past is to have no knowledge of that past.
