We have more important things to worry about than what happened 150 years ago

You can’t change history, and people are making a big deal about things that happened more than 150 years ago. Humans of every religion, color, race, creed, nationality etc. have had to deal with adversity of some kind. You can’t change that.

But the fact that our schools are way behind the national average, students can’t fill out job applications or make change, do not know the multiplication tables and can’t put together a resume doesn’t seem to bother people, at all.

Let the dead lay. Instead, worry about the future before we become a Third World nation. Have pity for your children and grandchildren because they are in for a hard life.
