rampant racism, homophobia, political oppression, naked foreign aggression and so on.

Damn, good thing we cured all that back in 1965.

I wonder if it has more to do with racial demographics than party membership demographics. Both counties are pretty Democratic, but Montgomery county is majority white and PG county is majority black.

Oh, that definitely has something to do with it. We didn't learn too much about Indian oppression, but ordinary history education basically ground to a halt every February so we could learn about slavery and the civil rights movement for the umpteenth time. I remember in eighth grade one student actually stood up and asked, "why are we learning about Harriet Tubman again?"

Also, my elementary school had random assemblies where the whole school would get out of class to learn about some aspect of black culture, sometimes rather obscure. I remember there was one for "hoofing," one for a dancer-storyteller from some African nation or another...the Reggae assembly was pretty frickin' awesome, though.
