Summary
In this episode, we discuss the reason Andy wrote an article regarding the anniversary of Pearl Harbor.
We study history to learn from our mistakes.
- It's vital to see, as a country, what we did right so we can keep doing it—and what we did wrong so we can avoid it.
- It's important to teach U.S. History to avoid an undercurrent of misinformation going throughout the country.
- Imagine the paths people would go down if they were learning from a lie, rather than learning from the truth.
Most of our high schools have coaches teaching U.S. History.
- Many students across America are taught by someone without a degree or certification to teach U.S. History.
- A lot of high schools task the coach with teaching history.
- American History may be the next subject to go in our schools.
Tune in to hear more about Andy's intriguing article on Pearl Harbor.
