Excerpts from the stroy at the above link:
Based on recently adopted state academic standards, these new textbooks have been accused of ignoring racial segregation, downplaying the Ku Klux Klan, and suggesting that slavery was a secondary force behind the Civil War.
Pat Hardy, a Republican Texas education board member who helped usher in the standards, says that slavery was a "side issue to the Civil War," according to a transcript provided by Washington Post.
"It's the obvious question, it seems to me. Not only are we worried about the flags and statues and all that, but what the hell are kids learning?"
