> history of the US in the Philippines is taught even in gen-ed college history classes, let alone, say, high school

Depends on the state. I grew up in California, so Asian American history is extremely prominent since 1st grade.

Ah. Plains state here. Maybe that’s to California as Native American history was to us. That, the “age of exploration”, western expansion, very bad revolutionary war history, and the “cradle of civilization” (Mesopotamia) must, collectively, have represented 95% of all our time spent on history, K-6.
