A lot of people don't think teaching history is important, but witnessing an entire generation of people who aren't aware of historic facts and then form an opinion based on nothing more than propaganda and uninformed mouthpieces, makes you realize how truly necessary it is.

Last Saturday, Charlottesville’s Black history museum melted down the statue of Confederate general Robert E. Lee. The statue had been a rallying point for fascists, including the "Unite the Right" rally in 2017 during which one of them murdered Heather Heyer and grievously injured many others.
For years, anti-racists had fruitlessly requested the removal of Confederate statues around the country. Far-right politicians responded with laws making it illegal to remove them. Only after anarchists and other abolitionists used illegal direct action to pull down statues—starting in Durham and Chapel Hill, North Carolina and spreading all around the United States—were liberal politicians forced to remove some of the statues that remained.

The struggle against white supremacy continues. Direct action plays an essential role.

TIL: There are dozens of long term studies regarding the effects of a father's involvement in childhood. The more time a father spends with their son greater reduces their stress, chance of drug/tobacco use, dangerous behaviors, increases education, and affects future income over 37 years.

First there were the Pilgrims, then there was the Civil War. After MLK ended segregation, racism disappeared from the country. If the Standard American History Myth that we've all been taught is incorrect - When was the last slave freed in America?
