Did a post go away? I have a potential reference for the comm. It's not directly a feminist thing, but it deals with racism & somewhat with classism, and how "history" is biased. While The Non-Discovery of Australia is handed around as a "humor" post, it's got a lot of truth to it:
The Australian Aborigines were the first people to not discover Australia. There are a number of theories put forward by a number of leading experts as to why this is so. It is generally accepted that the Aborigines failed to discover Australia because they had:
  • no guns
  • no Bibles
  • no diseases such as the plague, small pox, etc.
  • no flags
  • no title deeds
  • no monarch
