  1. History instruction has been side lined for years in favor of instruction for standardized tests for math and reading. Reading is fundamental, but treating accurate history curriculum like an orphan step child has taken us to a weird place. A democracy depends upon an informed citizenry.

  2. Unfortunately, we lost JFK Jr and his wife in a tragic plane crash. I understand that RFK jr's used to be a talented environmental lawyer. Why doesn't he return to that? If he wants to build a resume in government service, why not start with city council or congressman? Voting for another presidential candidate with zero government experience, wow, didn't the GOP try that in 2016? Why repeat that disaster? More than one million USA residents were lost to COVID due to that mistake.

  3. A return to civics instruction and accurate history curriculum nationwide is needed. Certain states are starving their public schools, and the lack of historical knowledge is showing. A democracy depends upon an informed citizenry. 🗽
