  1. The so-called “canceling” of American history by ANY School Board/educator/etc. is NOT their job. Their job is to TEACH our children and American history is part of that education. If they fail to teach, they do not need to be in that job and should be replaced. Our children do NOT need Socialists/Leftists/Communists in the education workforce feeding our children nothing but propaganda in their way THEY want them to think instead of the truth about this country. Our country is going to hell allowing these people to do whatever THEY want to teach and NOT teaching our kids the truth. AND PARENTS: WAKE UP!!!! PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR SCHOOLS AND RAISE YOUR VOICE ON WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE!!! We’re heading towards another China/Russia/Cuba — is that what you want for your children and this wonderful country!!!!

    So the then government had them rounded up and hung as a warning to other native Americans. Is this so?
