And at the University of Michigan, regents have voted to strip a former school president’s name from a campus science building because he lent his scientific expertise to groups that were in favor of selective reproduction, also known as eugenics.

Margaret Sanger? Nope, guess not.

There was no white supremist rally in Virginia. The lie continues to be told.

Never heard Ben Franklin owned slaves. Heard he started the first abolitionist society.

True, Franklin was involved with the first abolitionist society. Before that, he owned slaves for about 40 years, freeing them sometime in the 1780s. Of course, Franklin wasn’t a big slave owner, but did own several household servants. But maybe we should keep quiet about that or he’ll disappear into the memory hole.

It is alleged Ben also detested Jews and tried to have them banned from the USA.

Just like Margret Sanger. Time to defund and dismantle Planned Parenthood?

Yes. Gov Dayton ordered the paintings of Minnesota soldiers in the War Between the States removed because it depicted men with guns, and that disturbed his Governorness.

Most sources agree that was a forgery somebody came up with in the 1930s.

Please post an article about public universities combating racism by ending race-specific campus centers and race-specific scholarships.

And they are biting at the bit to take down likenesses of the Founding Father’s and all vestiges of white accomplishment.

Lincoln had some VERY un-pc comments about blacks.

So did Sherman...along with Jews and Mexicans and Indians.

I’m waiting to see those statues come down too.

They’re shutting down the eugenics doctor. That means they’ll be shutting down Planned Parenthood, too, right?
