[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This entire thread is an example of why these monuments need to be removed, schools need names changed, and a lot of history needs to be taught. Can you imagine that here we are, in 2022, explaining why slavery was bad? This entire thread is frightening. [/quote] Well this thread is also very biased. What percent of these posters you think are from VA as opposed to Dc or Md? Probably only half. Also take into account the political biases, it’s not representative of the state at all.[/quote] Really? What do you think would be “representative of the state” — which includes everything from southwestern Virginia to the DC suburbs? Are there views “representative of the state” that somehow include the FFVs, the Ballston Bros, the recent suburban transplants, the immigrants, the longtime rural communities AND the 20% of the population that’s made up of non-monolithic Black communities?
