Audacious and self-righteousness, they demand that only ‘the evil’ of these leaders be remembered and ‘lives after them’ and any ‘good’ be cancelled..“The main victims are white males whose misdeeds and alleged misdeeds occurred when social mores and political climates were much different..“Defacing statues and renaming buildings are favorite ploys.
