“...an assistant professor at the Washington and Lee University School of Law...”
It’s in Lexington Virginia.
Robert E Lee was President of that college right after the Civil War ‘til his death.
I’m surprised no one has advocated removing his name from the school and moving his grave off-campus.
IIRC, Lexington is the location of that restaurant that made Sarah Sanders Huckabee leave in the middle of their dinner.
You must have missed it. It’s already been advocated.
I expect it to happen with the next few years.
