I would argue that the existing state wasn't "genuine historical education": I made it all the way through high school without ever being taught the state I was educated in had outright banned Black residents in its constitution.

My high school had our class go across the river multiple times to visit the same plantation house. They would show how pretty the property was, and give a history of the people who owned the property and how important they were.
We never got to be anywhere near the slave quarters, and it was never once mentioned that dozens of black people were brutally slaughtered there with their heads put on pikes at the entrance.
