Schools can't just make up their curriculum, its planned by a group of people. Schools can't make up what they teach, however, I suppose its a possibility for that group that decides the curriculum or the teacher to teach something false, HOWEVER, it would quickly be debunked when someone learns that student are being lead astray.

History is my favorite subject in school, I just don't like learning about Africa and how they attempted to colonize it. (Europeans.)

My least favorite part of history to learn about is American history.. just can't get into it, only past the Civil War.

History is relevant to the present because WE ARE the past: we are the sum of all the events--good, bad, and indifferent--that have happened to us. This sum product guides our actions in the present.

Work is involved with history, figuring out why someone did something, why something happened, why it didn't happen, how people play into events, how something could've been changed to receive a different outcome.
