True Whispers: The Story of the Navajo Code Talkers
Since our current leaders and literally trying to whitewash American history, it is incumbent of us to preserve what they are trying to hide. Here is a documentary made about the Navajo Code Talkers. I can’t find a direct link but will add if a viewing possibility appears online. Best I can get is a trailer.
In the same vein is the story of Choctaw Code Talkers, a video of which can be found here. You just need a library or university ID. You DO have a library card, yes?

Trump’s anti-DEI order yanks air force videos of Tuskegee Airmen and female pilots
In case you think you aren’t a sexist or racist or an idiot and voted for Trump either once, twice, or three times – you are absolutely wrong.
Conservatives hate history, are afraid their children will learn that women and minorities have contributed honorably to our nation. It doesn’t fit their white supremacist agenda.

History is covered up all the time, and the South has done a fantastic job of it.

In Texas, Native Americans were never abused or harmed, despite what history and librarians have to say about it.
