There is a lot that was never taught to us about our history, especially for minorities. Probably Texas is the only good state that requires specific Texas History be taught in their schools, at least they did when I lived down there.

With the rich history we (our Country) have, I have never been able to understand why our educators don't add verified factual history to what's in our textbooks. Instead, they teach a lot of stuff our children shouldn't see.
