perhaps related discussion:

I am a homeschool mom who is finding a lot of other moms waking up to all the agendas. I am hearing from a lot of worried parents concered about their brainwashed teens. The parents want help deradicalizing them from anti-male and anti-white worldviews. The more I talk to these parents, the more I see a need for some kind of crash course for parents to learn some real history and facts so they can course-correct their kids.

That's awesome. Thanks.

It's ironic, but I think the SJWs were right about one thing when it comes to education. It's not great if kids are only taught about the U.S. and Europe, and not about the rest of the world. If kids don't know the real history of the entire world, then they can be tricked into believing the rest of the world was pure utopias, while Europe was a bunch of evil colonizers. The reality is that the rest of the world had all the bad things Europe is criticized for.

For example, the mainstream narrative is that the Spanish just walked in and toppled the Aztecs by themselves. But the reality is that the Aztec Empire was toppled by its own former slave states with the aid of the Spanish.

More education and context would solve this. But the SJWs don't want that.
