Students: Revise texts to show ‘crimes against humanity’

(KPIX-TV) A group of students at Los Altos High School want California history textbooks revised, claiming the current textbooks don’t tell the whole story.

The students claim the version of American history taught in California classrooms is at best incomplete and at worst biased and inaccurate: failing to adequately cover the experiences, accomplishments and frequent mistreatment of communities of color and women.

“There’s definitely value at looking at the good things we have done, there’s definitely value at being proud of those things, and there’s even more value in acknowledging what we haven’t done correctly,” one of the students said.
