REAL American History

The lopsided negative reviews are likely from people who prefer their history whitewashed. I read the NYTimes piece and read the book and now I'm watching the show. Watch it and be better educated about the realities of our history. In particular the central role that race has played at every stage of this nation's fraught existence. I am so grateful for the authors and the cast and the fact finders. I am just sorry that the far right has target d the show in order to generate negative comments from people who most likely will not even watch it. Ignoring history does not erase it. Embracing history will help us avoid repeating it.
