Unfortunately it is still being taught to americas kids. I was just
watching a Nova special about the columbus debate. Apparently when
Paul Mellon presented his "viking map" on columbus day 1965, the
response in the newspapers described it a a "communist plot"

Even though the map proved to be a fake, it still goes to show the
lengths we will go to avoid writing accurate history (viking
settlements have been found in Nova Scotia from around 1100 CE)
