You may have heard that the Texas School Board recently approved curriculum changes that distort history - basically substituting right-wing propaganda for what most of us would recognize as more-or-less honest history.
Given that the Texas market is the largest in the country, and that as a consequence text-book publishers cater to the whims of the Texas School Board, this decision has the potential to pervert the teaching of history nation-wide.
You can do your part.
Send an email to major text-book publishers.
