She is upset because she read the framework and the sample test and her concern is an overly negative view of our history and many of our historical figures(those are almost her exact words).
She also said that the United States ended slavery with "great sacrifice". Who really knows what she was talking about because she wasn't specific....however applying the principle of charity lead me to conclude she was talking about an internal civil war and not some economic loss because of ending slavery. So if I had to bet....I bet that she is well aware that there was a civil war played a huge part in ending slavery in this country. But it was an internal conflict and nobody forced us to end slavery. As a country we did ended slavery of our own accord(voluntarily). We did it ourselves(with some of ourselves coming kicking and screaming).
