My cheeky wager is that U.S pupils from yesteryear actually had a better globalist understanding of the origins of science than students today, only because modern textbooks have gotten shittier and watered down. (And sometimes even needlessly politicized). There's a very prevailing and disgusting pop-science trend today that's obsessed with breaking everything down and explaining things as simplistically as possible. The increasingly "uncomfortable" truth for many still persists today though, namely that modern science had its birthplace in the European Renaissance period. All kneel to the mighty Printing Press!
