There's absolutely nothing sensible in this tweet about anything. Hell, several historians rejected the Dunning approach *while he was still teaching.* Bassett rejected it in the 00s, Stephenson rejected it in the 20s. Coulter was SHREDDED for preaching Dunning in... 1948https://twitter.com/HeerJeet/status/1460457078707953667 …

"The Dunning School and similar historians dominated the version of Reconstruction-era history in textbooks into the 1960s."https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning_School …

Dunning School was out in the historical profession in the 40s. Some of its ideas linger on in extraneous cases *today* but to suggest it is dominant or was dominant "until very recently" is just wrong.
