re: #37 jaunte

IMO the first day lesson in US history for every school year past 3rd grade or so should be something that should be known in order not to repeat it.

I’m sure 8 painful episodes can be found easily enough. Off the top of my head there’s

Tuskegee syphilis experiments
The elimination of black wall street in the Tulsa race riot
The abandonment of reconstruction in the bargain of 1877
The Chinese exclusion act being an early political win for organized labor
The civil rights realignment
The corruption behind the US establishment support for the Vietnam war.
