A great article to send to a leftist.

We came upon an old man who recounted an interesting irony about the street we were on. In 1972 this street was called 'Lenin Street.' He said that during the Nazi occupation of the 1940s, it had been called 'Adolf Hitler Street. 'The man noted wryly that during the Latvian independence before Soviet occupation and before the Germans renamed it, the street had been called 'Freedom Street.' That a street named in honor of freedom would later bear the names of Hitler and Lenin was indeed a bitter irony.

Will every city have a BLM Boulevard?

One of our greatest cultural mistakes IMHO is that we completely stopped talking about Communism and the horrors of the USSR once the wall came down. We now have a couple of generations who are clueless. Material like this is invaluable.
