American "exceptionalism" at work.
Something I run into a lot with my fourth graders is the desire to label historical figures as “good” or “bad” people. It’s A Lot, and I’m sure it comes from things like this.
Absolutely agree, although having been through both American/Australian education systems, I did find that at least in the U.S. they tried to teach me about local Native American people/cultures. In Australia, history (especially Aboriginal history) was mostly ignored.
We did a lot on Aboriginal history when I was in high school, but it wasn’t free from racism.
