Yes you can. You can be a student of history enough to know that America has been a lot of things, and not just that. To know it’s our job to fix what’s wrong, to atone for what’s wrong, not just bitch and complain and criticize what’s wrong.

as a student of history there is no time since its "creation" that it wasn't what I described. if we delude ourselves on what this country is and has always been we can never "fix it".

Not true. Hundreds of thousands of people have given up their lives to course correct this country. They deserve more than our just whining on Twitter. We’re not the first generation to see what’s wrong and to try to fix it.

A True History of the United States: Abridged for Today — Few Americans understand who Abraham Lincoln, John Quincy Adams, and William McKinley were and how the spirit of the American Revolution shaped the world versus the British imperial system. youtube.com/watch?v=Dr8Lkdd6…

You think that’s all anyone is trying to do? You think there aren’t millions of us who understand the problem?
