New ‘Trailblazers of America’ Series Features Untold Stories of Legendary U.S. Pioneers: ‘Our Boys and Girls Need Heroes.’

PragerU’s Jill Simonian told Breitbart News editor-in-chief Alex Marlow that the organization’s new “Trailblazers of America” series features the virtually untold stories of America’s legendary pioneers that children do not typically learn about in school, noting that this is needed today more than ever. “Our boys and girls need heroes,” Simonian said.

Simonian added that PragerU’s new series for kids “talks about history” and “the expansion of America.”

“But what it really talks about is that grit and American spirit and perseverance that these men [had],” Simonian continued, citing, “Bass Reeves, a lawman who escaped from slavery.”

“He allegedly arrested hundreds and thousands, some people say, of criminals in the wild west. He was a fascinating character,” the PragerU host said, before asserting, “Our boys and girls, they need heroes.”
