No, they intend to keep in the battles the South won, cut out the battles the North won, and then order teachers to insinuate that the South was only conquered because Abraham Lincoln made a pact with Satan.

Have you spent much time in the South? A lot of conservative whites there STILL hate Lincoln…150 years after he got shot in the head. If this isn’t the definition of bitter unwillingness to let things go, I don’t know what is.

Fortunately, black Americans know their own history, as well as most others in America….and they’ll defeat this attempt to literally and figuratively whitewash history.

If it weren’t for revisionism, the modern GOP would have no sense of history whatsoever. The TN TP is far more offensive than a thousand tweets by Chris Rock ever could be.
