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?

Ok you got me curious so I googled "Atlantic triangle trade". Turns out that triangular trade is just a general term for a common trading practice and not in and of itself relating to slavery. Kind of like a traded goods round robin. So now the message, apparently, is, "It's just good business."

I propose we vote. Shall we just rename Texas "Beckett", or shall we go all out and call it "The East India Trading Company"?
