It's almost like different schools don't all teach the same exact curriculum.

That’s my point. I’d been operating under the belief this side of US history was well-taught and part of a standardized curriculum. I was honestly shocked when I realized people were only first hearing about Tulsa from the watchmen…of all places. And I’m confronted again with the reality that our educational system is so ad-hoc that what happened in Wilmington isn’t even mentioned in Wilmington schools.
