As Millennials age into making nostalgia content, one thing I really, really hate is when GenX childhood experiences are erased from existence because millennials just found out about a thing in the 90s, and they start the timeline of existence for that thing at their own childhoods. When hello, that thing existed for 80s or 70s children as well.

I do try to be patient and mostly curious with "incorrect" perspectives of younger generations, because I know I've got those wrt times before me...I generally find it annoying at worst, and interesting at best, because forgetting is the haunting existential problem we're all caught up in...

But like, what the hell. Yes, I, too sold magazines/gift wrap door to door to get points for cheap-ass rewards. Yes, in the early 80s. No, that isn't just YOUR memory.

If you're making a 36min video about it, you must have done your research, so would it kill you call it "The wild world of 70s-2000s fundraisers"? (Or earlier if it started earlier.)

Likewise with Scholastic Book Fairs. The other day someone claimed their Millennial experience of learning to love to read at the book fair was unique to their generation, and like NO SONNY. *shakes cane*

Remembering is important, and if it's important for you, then it's important for us, and like, hello, here we are. 👋🏻

Unfortunately, I can confirm that the story of the #CivilWar has been taught to Southern students from a tragically skewed perspective for generations. I know, because I read the same kinda elementary school textbook crap that is discussed in the article. We were very clearly instructed to believe "the War of Northern Aggression" began, and continued in earnest, over states' rights, and a regionally unfair system of taxation. Our predominantly white teachers looked their students in their young faces and said, "It wasn't about #slavery.

Luckily for me, at the same time that those dreadful texts were foisted upon us, we also had access to the national news, via tv. #genx kids like me could thereby be witness to, and learn other versions of, both national and regional history.

As a white kid, i questioned a lot of what I was told, growing up in the American South: why were #Black people treated so badly? Why were #women treated as less important than #men? Why did my school textbooks lie to me? My #boomer parents had inadequate answers. Mostly, I was discouraged from asking, because, "That’s just the way things are."

After two #Obama administrations, I really thought MAYBE, as a nation, and also as a region, maybe we were maturing and growing.

Then, #2025 happened.

We still have a long way to go.
