Political Censorship in the 19th Century

The practice of censorship within American schools established itself, after Washington's presidency, as public schools were integrated into The United States' governmental/ societal spheres in the 19th century. Fears such as de-tenderizing the youth were officially cited, with the overall revolt towards imbedded political division. Undoubtedly, the culture bounded children's authors of the time as well to this building era of partisan censorship. The omittance of President Washington's pilgrimages and stances, regarding his federalist contribution by author Marcius Wilson, serves as an example of this censorship. It is fair to note that this occurred during the Jacksonian period.
