He is right and the sad part is that this is happening in America too.
They are not teaching history and geography to the extent they should and it is disgusting .
Fact is that if they do teach factual history then kids will know the sacrifices of men and women in the past and what made the UK and America great.
They will not teach reconstruction after the war knowing southern kids will be unhappy at how their ancestors were treated.
In the UK they now teach how the British empire was all bad when it was not.
As an historian I find the lack of history in this country and England appalling.
Even these so called self educated types and elitists who think they know it all have no clue about history or geography and this needs to change
The desire to teach history better than the public schools is what was my first motivation to homeschool my daughter.
The STEALING of this nations children’s heritage from them is DESCPICABLE!!! More people need to be angry about this.
What is even sadder is that there are plenty of people who HATED history, and therefore, dismiss this whole issue as, not important. ARGH!
