For me, in 9th grade we learned a lot about the Civil Rights Movement while 10th grade was a year of World History and Hitler certainly came up. But I knew who he had been long before that, we all had grandparents who experienced WWII and everyone knew the evils he had perpetrated before learning the history in school. The statement of "very fine people on both sides" after the neo-nazis in Charlottesville should have been a hint on where he stood.
