The Declaration and Dinesh D’Souza’s “Revisionist History”

“Mainstream conservatives often view themselves as sworn enemies of ‘revisionist history,’ being against books like Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States. Doubtless, conservative author, commentator, and filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza would also describe himself as an enemy of ‘revisionist history.’ For example, in promotion of one of his films, D’Souza appeared on the Rush Limbaugh show where the headline read: ‘Rush Limbaugh Show: Dinesh D’Souza Debunks Liberal Revisionist History.’ Ironically and unfortunately, when it comes to the Declaration of Independence, D’Souza is a perpetrator and promoter of bad revisionist history.” (08/07/26)
