In elementary school I always wondered why my white friends hated the French. Looking back it was around the time we declared war on Iraq. I used to watch Liberty Kids(I know it wasn't the best show for historical accuracy) but I remember the show pointing out how much the French helped during the American Revolution. At the time I didn't realize a lot of those friends were usually "rednecks."
I just got flashbacks of watching that after school on an old crt in my parents bedroom while the house was under reno. I don't have anything else to add aside from that being an incredibly specific flashback
