The Melting Pot - K-12 project

Through searching, I have found a website from a young american student, whose age is not specified, that talks about immigration and specifically focuses on African Americans being "labelled' as immigrants which is considered wrong by the student.

The student also points out that Blacks or African Americans are perceived as people that try to cling to the there culture and language.

The student says that Americans Came to the US off their own initiative with no force, which shows that they wont be told what to do or be by anyone.

To answer the question: How does it present the aspect of US History to American School children today?" I would say that is presents US history and America as a place of freedom and dreams to be fulfilled and something to remember as it once was, as it talked about the immigrants coming to the US off their own initiative.
