Is this what American education sounds like? Do you recall that European nations practically ruled the world at different times in history and gladly took in and integrated foreigners? Unlike Americans who mostly wiped out the natives and grandfathered in slaves.

Or if you don't like to go by random photos: "Historical migration into or within Europe has mostly taken the form of military invasion" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_Europe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_Europe > Is this what American education sounds like? Having been educated in Europe myself, there was no hint of this "gladly took in and integrated foreigners" you speak of in the curriculum. May I ask where you got this idea?
