if we NEED to preserve the names and stories of these men they need to take a backseat to what they did and the effects of what they did and the impact their actions had in shaping the world today, but that's unfortunately not what happens. history education in America is very uncomfortable when discussing serious crimes against humanity and tends to skate around them in a way i think very much enables a slide into white supremacy as an adult. children need to be taught firmly and early that these things were terrible and the VICTIMS need to be humanized, not the perpetrators.
