“American Solidarity 2026: The Urgent Message from History That Could Change Our Future Forever”
Ever paused to wonder how much of American history quietly slips through the cracks of our school textbooks? I did—until I stumbled onto a PBS special in 2018 about the American eugenics movement, and, honestly, it shook me to the core. This pamphlet isn’t just a history lesson; it’s a raw, honest reckoning with parts of our past we’d rather sweep under the rug. From the shadows of eugenics and sterilization policies to how these dark chapters influenced events as grim as World War II and the Holocaust, the author paints a haunting picture of a nation both heroic and deeply flawed. What really got me thinking—is it possible for a country to claim “this is not America” in moments of racial or social unrest, when, in fact, these moments have been woven into its fabric all along? With a nod to Thomas Paine’s fiery pamphlet, Common Sense, this work calls for a new kind of solidarity—one grounded in empathy, intellect, and courage to face our truths. It’s time we stop hiding and start healing. Ready to revisit history with new eyes?
