To this day!! I've BEEN to the settler towns they have as points of tourism and educational resources. From what I remember, its fully that these were solely a victimized group people targeted by the monarchy of England Just Cuz. You know. As Christians are wont to be in history, helpless constantly at threat by the secular world, woe.

#To this day. People get huffy and “jokingly” accuse you of not having pride in your country when you point out that maybe #Maybe #the people who literally punished children for acknowledging their own talents as prideful and taking credit from God #Were unreasonable and terrible and there's a reason no one across the way ever wanted them back #It was interesting on one hand. To hear about how people made housing and the foods from back then and interactions with the native people #On the other. Not a lick of perspective of what they DID to be Unwanted in England. Learning that was a shock in what? 8th grade?#Loved that teacher. He was a lawyer too!#Wonder if it survived pandemic shut down actually....#The Purtains being unsettling always lingered with me after a field trip to 1 of their school houses.
