A shining example of what happens when we allow history to be changed to suit our own causes.

| African-Americans have suffered a lot to get to where we are today. Beaten by police officers, killed by white people, not being allowed to voice our own opinions... | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| You know... none of that stuff ever happened, right? | |
 | |  |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 | |  |
| What do you mean it never happened? I was a witness AND a victim of it when I was just a little girl! | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Yeah, but... I didn't read anything in my history textbook about African-Americans being beaten or killed or ignored by white people. | |
 | |  |
|

|
|
|
 | |  |
| So... what does your history textbook say, then? | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| It just says that America had black people. One day, Martin Luther King came along and made some big speech, then blacks were given the same rights as whites. | |
