[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it troubling that you seem opposed to the idea that people are nuanced. Would you be troubled if they were taught that President Clinton's legacy includes support for women's rights?[/quote] This. No one can understand these days that people are complicated with good and bad parts and conflicts with their beliefs and actions. They think people are either good or evil it seems despite the fact that we are trying to teach kids to be better critical thinkers. A lot of people at the start of the US thought it would be difficult to integrate blacks as equals which we know from reconstruction and racism in the north was a correct belief. I don't know enough about Lee and his thoughts and treatment of slaves, but the fear of problems due to integration was the reason many of the founding fathers who owned slaves agreed upon that 3/5 person rule and tried to push deportation to Libya.[/quote]
