Where we meme (joking in tone and detail, serious in sentiment) about General Sherman, the Civil War, and how the secesh traitors had it coming.
RULES
-
No bigotry. The Union, or at least the part of the Union WE support, fought AGAINST that shite. We are anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-homophobic, anti-transphobic, and in general anti-bigot here, even if not all the lads in Union blue uniforms were.
-
No Confederate sympathizing. Anti-democratic racist slaver traitors don't deserve shit.

Oddly, having grown up in rural Indiana in the 90s, I actually had really solid education through and through. We had honest decent coverage of the Civil War and it was emphasized how awful things were for the slaves. Same with WWII.
Can’t speak for the whole state ofc, but my school at least did a good job.
Same here. I was taught about how Indiana was part of the underground railroad.
Harriet Tubman represent!
