Funny you mention Ken Burns. He has this to say re: monuments:
Thank you for sharing. I had not seen that before and watched the entire clip before commenting.
I, as usual, agree completely with Mr. Burns, as well as James Baldwin. I actually have a signed copy of Go Tell it on the Mountain from him.
I am not sure how that is a counter for what I am saying. It argues strongly my point. That history should be remembered, contextualized and explained. Otherwise the lessons are lost.
