The Revisionairies - a documentary on the text book and culture wars

[choie]

Most DUers probably remember the controversy in Texas over the school board's move to insert their ideology (mostly conservative christian) in their text books. The documentary is extremely well done and pretty scary - you get to see the wackos who are on the board - the chair of the board at the time was a professor at good ol' Liberty University. So far the documentary is in limited release (I saw in in NYC), but if you get a chance, I highly recommend it! Here's more info:
