My 10th grade World History teacher was the catalyst of my unlearning process as well as a member of Kappa Alpha Psi. It was in his class that I realized my miseducation. I will never forget the first time I read They Came Before Columbus and I am SO GLAD that it was required reading for his class. What that taught me was to not take everything that I'm taught as truth and to seek truth for myself.
That's my answer too!! Thanks to Mr. Johnson, THE HARDEST TEACHER I EVER HAD, I learned so much about World History. He taught us so much that was not even in our history books. He worked the dickens out of me. He did not settle for memorizing dates and names. He challenged us to be able to go beyond basic memorization. He opened my mind.
