18. I just think it's sad
that our country has to seperate the courses.

I'm assuming these kids also have to take a course titled "American history"? Why are African Americans banished from under that title and put into their own course? They're just as American as me (and I'm, admittedly, about as white as it gets).

I also think it's awful how little non-western history is required, or even offered, at the high school level. As a history buff, it's very discouraging.
