My kid just excitedly showed this to me. He’s learning real history at home, not American Exceptionalism propaganda that he gets in school.

“Where Is the Grand Canyon?” children’s book, part of the WhoHQ series of Who? What? Where?

Some of these books in that series are fairly open to presenting radical history. We’ve also got the Che, Nikola Tesla, The Underground Railroad books.

    If they want more geology, tell them about Zion and Bryce; the rocks in those parks pick up where the top of the canyon stops

    I'll have to give that series a second look. I've seen them a handful of times in bookstores, and the ones I see on display are always someone like RBG or Hillary Clinton, so I just assumed that they were all lib shit lol. Looking at the list on their website, it seems like there are a decent handful of good ones in there! I don't think I've seen another children's book about the Tulsa Race Massacre, so they're definitely doing something right
