American history has become a gloomy narrative about race, gender and class struggles in introductory college courses, according to a commission report from Arizona State University. A yearlong study of universities’ introductory U.S. history syllabi found that “identity-focused terms” such as “White supremacy” dominated their content, according to the Jan. 19 report by the National Commission on […]
The Biden administration on Monday proposed banning government agencies from considering an individual’s current or past pay when determining their salary for federal employment, a move they say will help close the pay gap for women and minorities. The proposed rule would also require pay transparency measures including requiring federal contractors to disclose compensation ranges […]
American historian Howard Zinn once said, “If you don’t know history, it’s as if you were born yesterday. If you were born yesterday, then any leader can tell you anything.” The American Museum of Natural History announced Friday that it will immediately close two halls showcasing Native American cultural artifacts in order to comply with […]
In the iconic Western movie “Shane,” the title character is wounded while gunning down the villains. The hero then rides out of the valley and off the screen — presumably to die.
