I attended public school in Phillie till I was 17, then spent the last year of public school in Louisiana, and have seen the propaganda stuffed down kids throats, both north and south.
I wasn't taught the true history of America, not until I took up the hobby of genetic genealogy, and then acquired books and info, you will not find in school libraries. most things people believe today, are frankly bullshit, smeared on a toast to placate the masses and keep them under control.
However, even piss poor education is better than none. I posted this before. There was no such thing as Universal public education until Horace Mann. My own family fell into illiteracy after 1767 when my 5th great grandfather died, and did not emerge into literacy until Horace Mann's idea was adopted by (now backward) Arkansas, with my grandfather obtaining at least an 8th grade education.
Without the ability to read and write, men were at a disadvantage women had no rights, except dower rights to property, even then should could not sell it, unless she married again, or a son took control (shades of Muslim countries).
Sans the ability to read or write, they were unable to do business, and were at the mercy of white collar crooks.
The movement now,follows on the heels of that asshole Milton Friedman, whose ideas killed Allende, Chileans and elevated Pinochet. he preached school vouchers, and what do that facilitate religious education and schools for the well to do.
Public education needs to be reformed, but that idea is countervailed by the question... how, without empowering the right wing. Reformation is a double edged sword. Look no further than Florida, Arkansas, Oklahoma and other MAGAt controlled states.
