America is drifting into collective amnesia regarding our history. Ask a middle-schooler (or young adult, for that matter) why 56 men pledged “our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor” in 1776, and you’ll likely get a blank stare — or worse, a lecture reducing the Founders to nothing more than an oppressive patriarchy.

That indifference isn’t accidental; it’s hard-wired into a system that prefers compliant subjects to informed citizens.
