What is this, 1984?

A summary, as written by [livejournal.com profile] theladyscribe:
"Texas just passed its new education syllabus. It not only teaches children that the UN is a threat to America, it removes Thomas Jefferson from the list of important Enlightenment thinkers. Because he was a major supporter of the separation of church and state.."

I don't understand how the hell they're able to do that. Is this the beginning? And how can it be stopped?

Hm. I suppose it's possible that that's what they were calling the route when they were using it to actually transport the slaves. What I object to is their using this official-sounding name that makes it sound like something we shouldn't be ashamed of.

Right now I'm really kind of on the thought that I don't think I want to be taking my Gay Liberal Witch ass anywhere near Texas anytime soon.
