We Take Nothing by Conquest - a US History textbook, Columbus to Reconstruction

"Fantastic!"When I started teaching 8th grade US history 10 years ago, I searched high and low for a good textbook. Needless to say, that search was fruitless. The textbooks that I found were either incomprehensibly written or dumbed down to the point of being intellectually insulting to a 13 year old. Moreover, none told the story of our history that my students really wanted to hear: the history of African-Americans, of Native Americans, and what life was really like for our ancestors. Followi

Columbus "Discovers" the New World - the good, the bad, and the very ugly

“The readings and questions were perfect.” No figure has haunted the American psyche as much as Christopher Columbus. He was, to say the least, a very complicated figure, and the focus of centuries of debate over his true legacy. On the one hand, he was courageous, devout, persuasive and single-minded; on the other, he was capricious, cruel and singularly inhumane. One thing is certain: his voyage directly brought about the rapid decline of thousands of years of indigenous society in the new wo
