Revisionist history in motion:
The Texas State Board of Education has adopted a resolution seeking to curtail references to Islam in textbooks.
Social conservatives on the board had asked that the resolution be put on Friday’s agenda. It was approved by a 7-6 vote.
The one-page resolution calls on textbook publishers to limit what they print about Islam in world history books and says the board “will look to reject future prejudicial social studies submissions.”
