They've decided to go down a really scary and who-knows-where-it-will-lead path in Texas. The state has adopted new "facts" for its social studies text books. "Facts" which will go light on slavery, the civil-rights movement and the separation of church and state. The US will not be known as a Democratic Republic but rather a Constitutional Republic. And there is more, of course.
We all share a history in this country and in this world. What we do not all share are opinions about what that history means and how it was reported down through the ages. To teach our children and even delude ourselves into believing that opinion is history is, it seems to me, a very dangerous path to start down.
The path looks so scary that I do not want to travel it with those who are starting down it.
