Lies My Teacher Told Me - Mourning Loss Of James W. Loewen
We're mourning the loss of James W. Loewen as a significant educator of our time and grateful for his commitment to #wholehistory and accurate teaching.
To reflect on and explore his work this month, we’re recommending for young readers: Lies My Teacher Told Me: Young Readers’ Edition.
In this book Loewen goes over and critiques textbooks and reframes history more accurately regarding key events, people, and time periods in history.
