Title: We gave it a "C"
Review: My husband and I are usually big fans of the History Channel and lovers of American history. We thought we would really enjoy "America: The Story of Us." Instead, we were very disappointed in this series, which seemed to be made for school-age children as a primer in basic American history. I don't feel my husband and I learned anything we didn't already know.Further, we were both kind of appalled at how much the series focused on the importance of white males in American history. While it's true that slavery and the civil rights movement were both mentioned, as were women unionizing during the industrial revolution, I don't feel that minorities and women got enough credit for their critical roles in shaping American history.As far as I am concerned, this series is a black mark on the good reputation of the History Channel.
