Lincoln Assassination in schools

[BettyO]

The slant is most certainly gone now! I really and truly think that basically no or at least very little Civil War history is being taught today in Richmond schools. While that is definitely wrong, it was also wrong not to teach the war from all perspectives, North, Black, women as well. It was, as I remember, battles and leaders - not much about the common soldier either.... another flaw.

Correct teaching of history requires that ALL angles of the subject be taught - history is basically the story of human kind - ALL human kind and deserves to be taught from all angles.
