"There are a few versions of history you can tell your kids. You can tell them the propaganda version—the fables, the self-serving myths, the lies that dictators or the jingoists like to traffic in. You can tell them the dark truth version, the almost-nihilist 'People’s History' version that is resurgent today—that everything is bad, was done with evil intention, that all of history is a cover for malevolence and that progress is impossible. Or you can tell them the third version: The one that does not deny history or hope. The one that looks to see the good in people without pretending the bad didn’t happen."Ryan describes how to teach your kids an accurate understanding of our country's history on today's Daily Dad Podcast.***If you enjoyed this week’s podcast, we’d love for you to leave a review on Apple Podcasts.
