Is there any limit for stupidity?!

There's an effort in the USA being made by some Southern Whites (many currently in the "Tea Party") to marginalize the negative African American experience throughout our nation's history. I wouldn't be surprised if this is supported by them as well. They are trying to do it in history text books our children read as well. It's very hard for some people to accept that their ancestors raped, whipped and murdered African Americans all in the name of profit.
