"Restoring Truth" or Rewriting History

This recommendation is shared by Bill Tammeus.

Here's a Substack post from Jemar Tisby, author of, among other books, The Color of Compromise: The Truth About the American Church's Complicity in Racism. I reviewed that book for The National Catholic Reporter.  'Color of Compromise' calls on American Christianity to face its racist past

Tisby's Substack post is a response to President Trump's new and ridiculous executive order called “Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History.” As Tisby writes, "United States history is much easier for propagandists to exploit when it creates a past where everyone was white and all they did was right." That's a pretty fair way to read Trump's new exec order. Read Tisby's post.
