“It’s not my thing.”
I know a lot of people who say politics isn’t their thing & they don’t really like reading or learning about history.
And I could say that’s fine and well because we all have our interests–but it’s not. I don’t like math, but unless I want to trust all the handling of all my finances to someone who “likes” math, I’m darn sure going to learn how to count. Not because I think numbers are cool, but because my livelihood and prosperity depend on it. It’s simple wisdom.
I truly believe that as a millennial adult you cannot hold someone else responsible for the problems caused by your willful ignorance.
So Dear America, please stop choosing to avoid World History. Because, like arithmetic, if we ignore the precepts found therein, we’re doomed to be duped by someone who paid attention.
With Much Love & Respect,
K. Marie
