“I listened to the Oct. 10 episode on Robert E. Lee. I did learn something about this historic figure. But the guest was patently biased and uninformed and almost gleeful in exposing his unchallenged personal opinions. Lee may have been against slavery and torn between his allegiance to his roots and his country. But the loser doesn’t have a right to statutes in the public square. Those statutes of confederate characters were erected post reconstruction, some 40 or more years after the civil war. The purpose was to further the oppressive atmosphere of the Jim Crow era. Black residents were subjected to this ugly reminder - that they live in places that fought for their enslavement. Next, Crocket threw the term “critical race theory” around a lot. But he clearly does have a clue what CRT is about. It is not a generic term to be used loosely. It is a subject taught in law schools that explores the fact of structural racism (which is real). I listened because I try to keep an open mind. But your guest’s lack of serious intellectual rigor made it difficult to get to the end. Please either schedule other academics on the topic or be prepared to challenge biased nonsense.”
