The Left Is Trying to Rewrite American History. We Must Stop Them.

Walter E. Williams / June 14, 2017 / comments
 

George Orwell said, “The most effective way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history.”

In the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, censorship, rewriting of history, and eliminating undesirable people became part of Soviets’ effort to ensure that the correct ideological and political spin was put on their history.

Deviation from official propaganda was punished by confinement in labor camps and execution.

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
- J. R. R. Tolkien

Perhaps what is needed might be the funding and construction of a few "libraries of traditional Western Civilization".

They would contain just what the title implies:
Collections of history that were written from the perspective of the Western mind before the left, along with political correctness and its objective of rewriting such histories became prevalent.

Also, collections of traditional Western/white literature, thought, philosophy, etc. Before the "regular" libraries purge such works from their collections. The goal would be to build a repository of Western thought to preserve it, undisturbed from leftist intervention.

Why not establish a regional university system with the same objectives, privately funded and accepting no governmental funding (and thus, not subject to their diktats)?
Kind of 180-degrees reversed from places like Evergreen College, which is much in the news lately.
