In the United States teaching History is very political. A little
less than half the country believes that our civil war had nothing to
do with slavery, that our founding fathers were deeply religious and
wanted to create a Christian nation, and many other things that are
not true. School boards

Actually our reading a book-getting Activities could greatly enhance
history teaching. The nice thing about History is that there are a
lot of good original sources in the public domain, free to download.
The students can read the writings of Thomas Paine, Ben Franklin, etc.
They are not limited
