Review – The Revisionaries

I don’t have much trouble imagining that rednecks walk the halls of power in the Texas state government. And sadly I don’t have trouble imagining such people using their positions to damage public education by revising standards to force teachers to teach inappropriate nonsense. To an extent that’s a byproduct of democracy, making it the responsibility of Texans to get rid of such scourges. The nettlesome thing is that the the state’s school system is so huge that textbook publishers must tailor their products to cater to the state school board’s whims. Thus this documentary becomes a chilling portrait of just how vulnerable our education system is to sectarian bigotry. Mildly amusing
