I always find your essays painful to read... Not the writing, the writing is great! The content is brutal. I taught and read history for many years and I often know much of what you are saying already, but your frame and put it all together into powerful indictments of our myths and institutions. Keep up the great work. It is too bad that legislatures all across the country are limiting what can be taught in history classes. I'm sure I'd be fired by now if I were still at it!

Thanks, Jeff! I'm not gonna lie, sometimes I wrestle with the bleakness lol!
