      Where has dude been? Critiques of the awful racial politics of 1st-wave feminists is central to how they're taught/discussed now.

      And there was JUST a big campaign led by POC students at Princeton to have the Wilson school renamed. 🤔

      OF COURSE the process by which these ppl's roles in US life are re-examined is diff since the landscape isn't marked by their veneration.

      There are 700 monuments to the Confederacy in the US. And that's not counting things like school/street names. http://bit.ly/2wH7C2q

      There is nothing to celebrate abt Lee or Stuart or Davis that can be divorced from their mounting a bloody insurrection to protect slavery.

      "Lee was a brilliant strategist!" That's a matter of debate! And anyway he was doing that strategizing in the name of protecting slavery!

          there have been very loud critiques from the left of historical figures on race, even those central to advance of left/liberal goals.

          By the way, this equivalence is apparently a thing that's happening on the conservative internet: google "Margaret Sanger statue"

          Buckley quote shouldn’t shock me, but it does. People like David Brooks have sanitized his legacy like they want to sanitize confederacy.
