One thing that irked me when I was in grammar school is that when learning U.S. History we always learned about what European Americans were doing(their culture, governmental system, etc) before they migrated to the U.S. but we never learned about the life or culture of Africans prior to enslavement. It was kinda like saying we were just sitting there waiting for White folks.
Thank you! That's an excellent point.
