Denouncement of the Founders and Our History

If you have read in the news as of late, two founders are being chastised for being slave owners – George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. This article will deal with the unfair recent outbreak of destroying the memory of Jefferson one of our prominent founders who drafted the Declaration of Independence and spent his life serving the republic that he helped create; but other founders are the target of Marxists who have infiltrated our educational system for at least three decades. 
The College Board that publishes SAT and AP tests have decided to remove mention of Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and George Washington (and others) except for a one sentence mention of our first president.
The College Board has painted the United States as a nation of racists that is genocidal and imperialistic. It is part of the infiltration of Marxists whose purpose is to denounce our history and traditions so it is more easily to dissolve all or most of the Constitution of the United States. The college that Jefferson helped found intends to remove any mention or public display or references of Thomas Jefferson. College Board AP U.S. History framework is a 98-page publication.
Indeed, they have installed justices in the US Supreme Court, like Ginsburg who publicly denounced the Constitution she had sworn in an oath to protect and preserve on Egyptian TV interview. She still remains as a justice when that very act called for impeachment and recently announced she has no intention of retiring despite her age.
Yes, Thomas Jefferson owned slaves, but he consistently opposed slavery. To understand this one should read the letters and papers of Mr. Jefferson who was the most prolific writer of all the founders. The most comprehensive website about Thomas Jefferson is The Jefferson Monticello. It addresses specifically the subject of slavery and Mr. Jefferson. There you will find:

At the time of the American Revolution, Jefferson was actively involved in legislation that he hoped would result in slavery’s abolition.5 In 1778, he drafted a Virginia law that prohibited the importation of enslaved Africans.6 In 1784, he proposed an ordinance that would ban slavery in the Northwest territories.7 But Jefferson always maintained that the decision to emancipate slaves would have to be part of a democratic process; abolition would be stymied until slaveowners consented to free their human property together in a large-scale act of emancipation. To Jefferson, it was anti-democratic and contrary to the principles of the American Revolution for the federal government to enact abolition or for only a few planters to free their slaves.8
...From the mid-1770s until his death, he advocated the same plan of gradual emancipation. First, the transatlantic slave trade would be abolished.10  Second, slaveowners would “improve” slavery’s most violent features, by bettering (Jefferson used the term “ameliorating”) living conditions and moderating physical punishment.11  Third, all born into slavery after a certain date would be declared free, followed by total abolition.12  Like others of his day, he supported the removal of newly freed slaves from the United States.13
Jefferson wrote that maintaining slavery was like holding “a wolf by the ear, and we can neither hold him, nor safely let him go.”17 [Christa Dierksheide, 2008]

 There are more sources one can use to investigate the matter of slavery concerning Thomas Jefferson. The gist of it is that Mr. Jefferson wanted slavery to end, incited the legislation that forbade any importation of slaves from Africa (or anywhere else). He was a man of logic however and knew that once the slaves were emancipated, they would live in misery because of nonacceptance by society, so formulated a plan for them to be repatriated back to Africa. Abraham Lincoln had the same idea but was assassinated before he could orchestrate such an endeavor - the alternate idea of securing Cuba and emigrating them there to have their own nation as a US territory.
The most ironic thing about this uprising against our Founders and segments of our history is that the democratic socialists behind this movement has a long, dark history for the perpetuation and increase of slavery, persecution of freed slaves, to when FDR signed an executive order that put Japanese Americans in camps without legal cause, charges or a trial. The Democrat Party has no business pointing fingers at America's historical personage when it has a history of hate and corruption up to and including the present day. If the Democrats want to erase/denounce people and entities in our bad moments of history, they should include erasing the Democratic Party.
All nations have histories, some longer than others, and all have moments in those histories that are something not to be proud of. However, erasing it and pretending it didn't happen relegated to be forgotten only increases the chance of history repeating itself. Indeed, presently the Antifa movement sponsored by American communist organizations is mimicking much of what began the Nazi movement in the 1930s and that is a history no one in their right mind would want that repeated.
In this case, it is a plot to denounce our Founders and teach youth that they are not worth studying or remembering, which like Obamacare is a prelude to government control over healthcare, will lead to the dissolution of our Constitution and our republic.
