04-05 I am reading Howard Zinn's People's History of the United States: 1492 - Present. It is making me upset. And not just a little ashamed of my country. That schoolchildren are not made adequately aware of the less noble, and often downright evil, parts of history is an intellectual crime of the highest order. If I ever have children, they're not going to public school (or private either, probably).
