must we all subscribe to the same vision of history
Of course our country is right up there w/ the pure of heart & motive countries like Canada, Switzerland or Costa Rica... Our motives are always altruistic.... We mean no harm to anyone & only the best for all...

All reasonable ppl know this= only unreasonable ppl would question or challenge this.

reasonable or unreasonable???

Can ppl come to genuine & unique/different historical understandings given different experiences shared over generations?????

European Americans??

Native Americans???

African Americans??

Mexican AMericans??

Asian Americans???

Is it understandable that these ppl could come to some different conclusions given their history????

Is it reasonable/understandable, then to expect that we all subscribe to the same understanding of history &/or events as just one of them???

Would a hater in this case be somebody who agrees that We should all share the same version of history or one who disagrees?

Anyways...I don't think that we should all subscribe to the same version of history....

It sounds to me that you are equating history with national identity....is that true?(sarcasm noted)

If that's the case I would say that is an Incredibly dangerous idea.....
