Look at all that money sitting there losing money
There's not enough time to cover everything, especially when an entire month is dedicated to black history.
Pilgrims landed, at some turkey, Natives are friendly people, Colonies founded, where's Roanoke? Grew some tobacco and cotton. Tea party, Declaration, the British are coming! Shot heard round the world.
GW great warrior and leader, resisted "coronation." New states didn't have centralized govt, Constitution written. Monticello is cool, Jefferson smart, Hancock signed it first. Andrew Jackson had a temper.
Abe Lincoln wore a black top hat, had a long beard and grew up in a cabin. Civil War, Harriet Tubman, emancipation, reconstruction.
End of the school year, out of time.
Next year, Pilgrims landed, ate some turkey…
I was trying to agree with you in a sarcastic devil's advocate way. The Illuminati has there set history agenda that is repeatedly drilled into young minds.
Even as much as the little details like who signed the const first are mindless rote learning fillers between the main points that we are supposed to learn.
I understand learning about Jefferson, even if he was a mason since, I think, he in fact authored the Const.
If the main US history figures were masons, it makes sense that we'd learn about them. We're not going to learn about the non-mason assistant to washington instead of washington.
But as to why hanckok is taught instead of the guy you mentioned, makes less sense.
