Jordan Rich fills in on NightSide with Dan Rea:

The teaching of America’s past in the U.S. varies upon interpretations of its history and recommendations as to what students should learn, how they should learn it, and when. Numerous public polls indicate that most cannot answer questions based on elementary facts of American history. Is our great nation’s history being taught effectively for today’s generation? Joining Jordan to discuss is Natalie Wexler, education writer and author of The Knowledge Gap: The Hidden Cause of America’s Broken Education System—And How to Fix It.
