“The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: it connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity.” —John Quincy Adams, 1837
ONE NATION UNDER GOD.
‘The Prayer at Valley Forge,’ Henry Brueckner
@BrandonHallTX I really believe Americans are ignorant to that fact that we are currently in religious war. Until we figure that out we will continue losing. Thank you for fighting on the frontlines in that war. You took ground today. Well done.
@BrandonHallTX@GlennPStory Why is it that Democrats are always wanting to rewrite history, from Woodrow Wilson’s History book that white washed history to the last 80 years of public ed…could be because Dems are ALWAYS on the wrong side of History.
So we have a terrorists supported representative doing their bidding in the attempted destruction of Western Civilization by changing our Texas school curriculum that removes any trace of American exceptionalism?
Pam Little and the democrats have been carrying the water for CAIR. Why? Maybe this endorsement explains it all.
Yes, a so called “Republican” was endorsed by CAIR for her election to the SBOE.
Republicans TODAY must refuse all democrats amendments that includes Pam Little’s. No more playing ball with extremists.
The line in the sand is TODAY. #SBOE #TXLEGE
The Texas State Board of Education is just about to take a final vote on the K-12 reading list. Rich classical literature and key passages of the Bible are coming back into the Texas classroom!
The breakdown of the nuclear family in the 1960's came with major societal consequences. Last night, I passed this amendment to the social studies standards at the SBOE. Students will be educated about this important shift in our history.
Most people are taught a very simple story about American slavery.
But history is messier.
Anthony Johnson, a Black man from Angola, arrived in Virginia in 1621 as an indentured servant. He gained his freedom, became a landowner — and in 1655 won a court case to keep his
Black servant John Casor as his slave for life. This helped set an early legal precedent for chattel slavery.
In 1830 there were 3,775 free Black slave owners holding ~12,760 enslaved people.
Did you know this part of the story?
Does it change how you see the “simple” version we’re usually taught?
Share it if you’re tired of slogans and want facts instead.

@kmcubine@MaryDunlaphome Morals require a foundational basis, our culture was based on Biblical Morals.
Our forefathers and founders were Christian and knew that the federal Govt should not influence the Church, allowing states to establish their own or not. Not the same as removing Bible from school
@kmcubine@MaryDunlaphome Should we stop teaching all Western Culture morals based on Biblical values? Biblical values are so intertwined into our moral fabric, trying to separate them will only lead to the destruction of our society. But hey, if thats your goal... your toxic plurality is not compatible
