sciencegeek BS: Irish Potato Blight- Cause found (658* d) RE: BS: Irish Potato Blight- Cause found 28 Mar 14


Since it's been awhile since my school days in NYS, I had to check out the 1996 curriculum change mentioned above

here is a link:   books.google.com/books?isbn=0299187144

however, the CHANGES made also include study of the holocaust and the historic treatment of blacks in the US. Hardly singling out Britain or promoting hate mongering. Instead the stated goal is to make students aware of how prevailing attitudes coupled with government actions or inactions can contribute to human suffering.

They didn't remove the American Revolution or FDR's Lend Lease Program... they just added a few more areas to be covered... but don't worry, I'm sure our kids have managed to sleep through them as well as they have the rest.
