I want them to learn it. I want them to learn about Sally Hemmings too. America can't get better until we shine a light on the ways it's deplorable, and has been for a long time. The myths and rampant nationalism need to die.

You're 100% right. The American ideology of rewarding nationalism and completely covering up all the harm it has caused is unbelievable flawed.

What should be rewarded is knowing the faults that stem from your country's history, which mistakes to not repeat, and which issues need to be resolved.
