For just a moment, I want to talk about how he mentions a mental slave race. I find it interesting that History in school teaches us mostly meaningless things in the context of today's world. They teach us to memorize dates and battles. They don't teach us about the Constitution, and its articles. Shouldn't that be much more important than learning who was the leader of some battle 200 years ago? We are encouraged to learn about wars and why they were important and necessary. I'm just now getting into the Constitution, and some of the laws and fundamental beliefs that make the country what it is. It seems they don't really want us thinking about or questioning the way the country is run. This way, they can go about their imperialism class-gap widening unfettered.
