My 5th grade daughter is studying the minutemen in school. Wifey is a Mayflower child and we have on our kitchen wall a original oil painting of Quartus Smith, one of her relatives . He was the son of Jonathan Smith, a original minuteman. She shared the painting last week at school and it is amazing the amount of teachers that loved it. Have faith. I live i a small liberal town in NY, but the schools have been open all year, and people are starting to see through the BS!
