I should note that Bill Nye's History makes some pretty racist jokes, and the cartoons have a pretty racist tone to them as well. Especially regarding the Native Americans (generally referred to as "children of the forest" and depicted as haggard, big-nosed drunkards), although anti-black material comes in after the Civil War section toward the end of the book. Please try to keep this in perspective, given when the book was written.
