I think that the government has no right to teach younger students lies about history. History is history, its happened in the past, therefore you cannt change it. I dont see why the government has to sugarcoat all our history to make it look like were the good guys in everything. They never even show how we got defeated or the real Christopher Columbus. Its ridiculous how much the government tried to cover up to make America look good. I mean sooner or later were going to hear about it, like in my United States History class. I just cant believe that 16 years of my life was sugarcoated facts. We shouldnt be taught sugercoated history, because its not the truth.
Even though some, or a lot, of it will be negative, it still is history and cannot be changed no matter how much someone trys to cover it up.
