@michaelbrandorg I wonder if you have been to the museum of African-American history. It doesn’t make me love my country less when we are honest about our past. It makes me love it more because of all the people generation after generation who have corrected our errors. And that includes slavery.

Can you admit that overemphasizing the negatives of US history is also soul annihilation? All designed to weaken the bonds between us as Americans and thus making it easier for some very ugly people with power to undermine
