Why "batter" them with To Kill A Mockingbird and Huck Finn? Just because they've been considered literary classics for decades/

Black kids already know all this. Why pretend it didn't happen?

Then why batter them year after year with it?

I see you haven't read the book in over 20 years and don't remember what you object to about it. I tried googling Mary Grabar and wasn't able to find specifically what she objected to about Zinn either. If Zinn wrote falsehoods that should be easy to document.

Mary Grabar: “Howard Zinn was bad–a communist, a corrupt teacher, a fraudulent historian, and an anti-American agitator.”

Fine. So what exactly did he get wrong?
