There are numerous historical fallacies and books  about our first Nations people's. An example is celebrated at Thanksgiving shown as a peaceful exchange between the tribes and pilgrims. No one wants to hear about the massacre of women and children which took place not far from Plymouth Rock. No , that wouldnt bode well for school plays and the portrayal of Squanto and the feasting with the new settlers. The reality is people do not want to know facts about politics, cultures and history. Americans operate by media sound bites, drama and emotion. Reason and facts do not impress upon simple minds.
