pickThis is a terrifying book that, as a modern American who is not Christian, is a window into the conservative so-called Christian movement that has now become “the right” and more frighteningly the “alt-right.” For a movement that likes to tell everyone else to “learn your history,” they clearly have no idea about their own. This is such an important book for all Americans. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
This seems like the most logical follow up to Ed Asner‘s “The Grumpy Historian.” It probably won‘t be as funny, but it‘s been on my TBR for ages and this seems to dovetail with part of Asner‘s book quite well.

Again, wrong on the historical points. This was not the case for black or brown people in America. Then again, they seemed fine with taking Indian land and outraged when they were told land wasn‘t theirs so they had to leave. 🙄 White privilege on display again, here. #factsmatter #historymatters #whyhistorymatters #ChristineWoodside #LibertariansOnThePrairie #WomenAlsoKnowHistory #LauraRoseReadathon

What idiot came up with this idea?! The Bronte Sisters, Mary Shelley, and Agatha Christy are all rolling over in their graves right now...including every woman we know is a woman now, but had to write under male pseudonyms for centuries in the west. No offence to J.K. but she‘s not that special (I don‘t think she wrote this, though).

This drives me 🤬 crazy!!! 🙄 It‘s annoying and clueless. This is very nearly a deal breaker (as in I‘m done with the book and the author) for me. I like her so much, it‘s making me just skip this poem, but if I see it again, I‘m out. HISTORY IS NOT A GENDERED TERM!!! Using “herstory” hurts female historians. STOP IT!!!

Oh the flat earther morons!!! 🤦🏼♀️ The complete idiocy is just sad. 🤦🏼♀️ This isn‘t a difference of opinion, this is some idiot rejecting scientific fact.

Sorry folks, people were not cheering as Christianity came rolling into town. (That was the allied forces rolling through Europe after the fall of the Nazi regime. Very different.) A lot of people suffered by these people trying to force “salvation” into them. It‘s actually remarkably reminiscent of the Taliban and Isis. It‘s kind of scary, actually.
