Over coffee with a friend, Common Core and history textbooks
came into the conversation, which led me to research both and
subsequently ask to join the group to review a few history books -
not as a parent - but as a curious ordinary citizen. These reviews led
to outcries of book censorship. News flash! Censorship is already
here. Finding little information on the Constitution or America’s
historical development, including America’s self-government
experiment; I couldn’t help but wonder what Abigail Adams would
think. Would Deaconess Bedell, also a teacher, offer up a piece of
her Christian mind to book publishers? I think so because on some
level women know that cultural amnesia is an insidious disease that
can render us victims if we ever forget our God given liberties.

Yes, we’ve come a long way, baby since the pledge to fight
the “despotism of the petticoat.” So this March, during National
Women’s History Month, use your voice to celebrate the women
whose stories are woven into the fabric of your life.
