I went to Monticello around the same time. The tour was awful. It was basically, “all slavery, all the time.” The tour guide was annoyingly condescending too. When we went into the room with paintings and busts of famous people, she asked if anyone knew who they were. I said I knew them all. She challenged me to name them. After correctly identifying them, she said I must have taken the tour before. I said, “No, I’ve never been here before, I’m just educated.” She asked if I majored in history. “No, my degree is in petroleum engineering.” She looked confused. As if engineers can’t read anything besides an ops manual.
