Maybe so, but when it comes to issues like racial diversity, the historical is political.

Even better: The white faces on that re-creation of the flag-raising at Iwo Jima have always reminded some of us of how far we Americans have come from the segregated military of those days. An all-white fire department memorial can remind us of how far we still have to go.

Racism is alive and well and living in liberal commentators!

Page missed the Native American in the Iwo Jima memorial.

Page missed the fact that it is not about race! If it were, then I would look at an NBA game as say, "this reminds me of how far we still have to go!"
