Tell Me the Truth: Unlearning What We Think We Know

This is a deep, powerful, effective installment of a winning white narrative. Why do all of our adopted educational textbooks leave out the Tulsa Massacre of 1921? Why is the relocation of indigenous people described as “voluntary” when their descendants call it the Trail of Tears? Why aren’t we taught about the bombs dropped on MOVE, a black liberation group, in Philadelphia in 1985? Now I have to question everything. We should all be questioning everything.
