As Usual, Ken Burns Is Right

"My thoughts on Florida House Bill 999:

"America’s greatness stems not from its suppression of our complicated history, but our willingness to engage and understand it. Each generation has helped further bring to life the values articulated in the Declaration and made more perfect in Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address.

"Our contribution should not be to silence those trying to understand the past more fully. By trying to dictate what teachers can and cannot teach, Florida House Bill 999 is an assault on the very liberties articulated by the Founders, and something that all Americans should speak out against."
