Libs bemoaned the fact that American History texts didn’t emphasize slavery and civil rights, while de-emphasizing the constitution.

What really got the libs in an uproar is when the committee decided to again include Thomas Jefferson in the historic lineup.

Unforgiveable! /sarc

Last year the official National Archives published position stating that the Civil War was over State’s Rights was removed, likely because it ran counter to what is usually taught in schools, that it was about freeing the slaves. From Alexander Hamilton to present day, the Central Federal Control vs States Rights issue has been a hot topic. With Marx that topic has gained philosophic footing.
