How Did Leftists Rewrite Our History? (Basic Logic)

History teaching has always required choices about what to include and what to cut. This video argues that those choices in modern Western schooling have produced a consistent pattern: European and Christian societies are uniquely villainized while comparable or larger patterns of conquest, slavery, and worse elsewhere are minimized or ignored.

The common curriculum of the so-called Dark Ages and the Crusades, the Atlantic slave trade versus the longer Arab and African trades, and other selective focuses show a distinct political motivation. And asks: why this pattern emerged and what the effects are on academics, institutional incentives, and the political consequences of decoupling Western identity from the historical record.



The politicisation of education. You can have abbreviated history lessons, that actually reflect what happened, or you can have what we see today which is grossly misleading when it comes to Western countries, conflict and slavery.
