Our kids are the future of America. I am sure that Texas may think they are doing good, but they aren’t. I have family in TX. All American kids should be learning the same things. It shouldn’t differ from region to region.

It Is What It Is

Hey, parents!“Does your kid’s science book question evolution? Does the history book downplay slavery in the civil war? …Guess who you can thank?

Yes, the largest buyer of text books in the USA, Texas, and their cabal of lunatics on the Texas Board of “Education.”

Per the NY Times: One is a nutritionist who believes “creation science” based on biblical principles should be taught in the classroom.
