Dear principals of ALL schools,
I am a junior in high school, and i just came to hear of the rape of Nanjing. I came to find out that i was fortunate to learn about this topic because too often in high schools around the country. They "deny" certain history, whether it is edited out of a textbook or censored by a school board. I don’t agree with this at all. I find that we should all learn what has happened in history no matter how tragic it might be. Life is hard and us as high school students know and understand that. What happened in the “Rape of Nanking” is a hard topic to touch and it is very disturbing but we’ve seen and heard many things that bother us and its just part of life. I feel like as a student in American history honor’s I should be teached about history like this because it will increase our knowledge and let us know how things were back in the day at some point. I think that all students should touch subjects like this. It is important for our knowledge.
Sincerely,
Vreny Gonzalez
