| I don't think they would focus on Italy if they have to deal with the whole world in just one year time. |

Why did I say World history? I meant to say American history.
6th grade: American history 1400's - 1865
7th grade: American history 1865 - 2012
8th grade: Civics

What the hell is Cahokia? We don't learn about every single American event in those times.

We never learned about the Red Scare. When we learned about the 1950's, it was mainly about and Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks and all these people trying to get Civil Rights in the 50's and 60's.

Yep. They just pick events that everyone already knows about and puts it in our curriculum.

whitewashing history means they remove all the bad parts of our history from the curriculum
its a very biased and improper way to teach history you should read about the red scare fascinating stuff |

Yea. They take out all the bad parts and just replace them with stuff we already know. And then add a little extra to it.
