History teacher shares unkown parts of U.S. history
There have been several cases this week of public officials and public schools incorrectly describing aspects of U.S. history and civics. We talk with Mark Oglesby, a high school history teacher, about some important, yet unknown, facts from U.S. history that he believes all his students ? and all Americans ? should be armed with. Author Kenneth Davis also joins in.
