- Here's a challenge... See if you can figure out how far back the Govt/Public School System seemed to have stopped even trying to educate the people about their rights. I don't think that would be a very easy task, but I can say that I was taught what was necessary and I believe the people who protested in the 60-70s did too. Maybe it started with Reagan. I think this video hits the nail squarely on the head. What do you think? ;)
