I actually would love to see some kind of modern version of this game.

Stay out of Malibu, Lebowski!

Yes, but it was labeled as such when I was in high school, hence why I referred to it this way. Fair to clarify though

That’s my point. I’d been operating under the belief this side of US history was well-taught and part of a standardized curriculum. I was honestly shocked when I realized people were only first hearing about Tulsa from the watchmen…of all places. And I’m confronted again with the reality that our educational system is so ad-hoc that what happened in Wilmington isn’t even mentioned in Wilmington schools.

Virginia.

I will caveat this before anyone says how progressive that was for the south…

My elementary school still very much taught the Civil War as “the war of northern aggression.”

So, still certainly a mixed bag on the education side I guess.

This event, the Tulsa race riot, etc. were all well covered in my high school history courses during “reconstruction period” lectures. Kind of blows me away when people say they never heard it discussed. I had thought this was all already standard.

After spending time around some archaeologists, actual archeology is only like the 3rd most important thing for them. Right behind arguing and drinking.
