It's incredible that tax dollars go to funding the publication of this kind of material with a government seal of approval on it! Certainly much of history is a matter of interpretation, certain historical works are more trustworthy than others, and of course there are disagreements. But what I take as the thesis is essentially that truth about the past is not really something we can know.
Take this statement from the article:
"The results have been profound. Historians now take it for granted that it’s impossible to understand any part of the past without taking into account the realities of all, and all kinds of, people."
No source cited, no names listed. A "fact" floating freely in midair. Pure propaganda.
