Texas approves radical right-wing history books

thomas jefferson big copy4 Texas approves radical right wing history books

Change will impact students across country

“For the next ten years, millions of students in Texas and across the country will read history textbooks suggesting that the actions of witch-hunt instigator Joseph McCarthy were justified. They will read about religious icon John Calvin instead of Thomas Jefferson. They will read a description of the US government that includes the words "constitutional republic" but not the word "democratic."
