Confederate statues - “We need them! We need them as...uh...a constant reminder that slavery is bad! So we can learn from history or something!”

That’s what I’ve consistently said about her. She’s got great analysis of the deeper structural issues and is amazing at explaining important concepts. Her discussion about the difference between guilt and responsibility being a highlight. And then just when I think I could almost consider her as a third choice, she…
