"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered.

George Orwell, 1984

And 1984 is no longer allowed to be read in high school lit classes because common core only allows non fiction or lefty approved fiction that masquerades as non fiction.

It is true in many schools that have adopted common core.
