Title: Our Children Taught to Hate America
Topic: Our Children Taught to Hate America

Discussed by Dr. Thomas Lindsay
with Texas Public Policy Foundation (www.TexasPolicy.com)

Stanford University School of Education Professor Sam Wineburg has written a new critique of Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States." However, the history department of Portland University is now declining to co-sponsor an event on the critique, on the basis that Wineburg does not hold a doctorate in history.
