She's not taught about in schools because she earned her success with hard work, great brains and persistence... and where is the story in that? If she was a whiny, oppressed protester who burned flags and marched and carried on, she would have her own textbook. But instead, she was a success because she worked to be a success. Can't have those kinds of stories taught by our socialist leaders. Might give kids the wrong ideas.... you know... that brains and work matter, but protesting and whining don't...
Great post. I'd never even heard of her! Amazing person right there!
Cheers,
