Why do you think some people might resist learning about the experiences of groups different from their own?
@9J7HC8C4mos4MO
People don’t want to feel guilty about what the people of the past have done but learning about these experiences is the first way to prevent them from happening again
@9J8FB4P4mos4MO
A major purpose of history is to learn what did not work in the past and to learn from the mistakes of our ancestors. If we choose to ignore some parts of history then those mistakes are bound to happen again in the present/future. We should not be ashamed of the shortcomings of our ancestors but instead, be proud that our country has evolved and conditions are much better compared to how they were back then.
