    We don't have to choose between a version of America that whitewashes its injustices and one that casts the founding as fundamentally evil.

        Uh. Yeah that is absolutely what trump is doing with his 1776 project. Same shit Russia did with their own history. Re-write it until it’s sanitized, and unrecognizable.

        Promoting patriotic education doesn't require whitewashing injustices. My very conservative education taught Slavery, Jim Crow, Trail of Tears, etc. as steps to reaching the ideals that were present in the founding documents. I grew up to be a patriotic liberal.

        I just had my kids read Hannah-Jones 1619 project essay, some Frederick Douglass, a speech by Obama, Conor F.’s essay on 1619 project in @TheAtlantic. Conor even talked to my class! Now my kids are doing mini-TED talks on what date they consider America’s founding, and why.

        This is wonderful and what I'd want for my kids (but this is because you show students the dignity/respect of a variety of viewpoints. Many educators don't. Correct me if I'm wrong but the 1619 Project K-12 curriculum would not include all these perspectives, right?

        We don't have to choose between a version of color as blue and one that casts its light as yellow.
