The article was written by Stuart Heaver, and I'm so glad I read it. Even 150 years later not everyone knows about Chinese soldiers role in Battle of Gettysburg. It is unfair to pick and choose of how much history our students will learn. Only after reading this article I learned about Corporal Joseph Pierce's history. The same situation was in Armenian history textbooks. I grew up glorifying Lenin, and not even once the name of Stalin was mentioned... Who gets to decide what will be typed in those books? Do they have a right to hold back the truth from a whole generation?
