“"In Germany, teaching the Holocaust is mandatory. It includes visits to concentration camp, museums, etc. They don’t shy away from their own ugly history. Yet the kids aren’t damaged; they’re strengthened, matured, humbled. US needs to do same re slavery. Not that complicated.”

@DidiQ Thx for the post. In Canada we have the Truth and Reconcilliation process. There is a 1500 page public PDF which describes the atrocities of the past between the First Nations & Canada. You mention ‘shy away from their own ugly history’. That publication is very difficult to read because of its ugliness. It is vile what was done. One has to deconstruct that culture which presented these previous lies. It’s the ugly colonialism, racism, and greed that supported this regime. It’s tough work
