Tear down Ken Burns’ works. They miscast history and just dredge up the past. Best to bury it all and start the USSA at Day One.

CNN is not in charge... the hoodlums are not in charge.. BLM is not in charge.... but THEY ARE FUNDAMENTALLY CHANGING OUR COUNTRY!!!!!!! barry gets his way from afar.. and this gripes me to no end..... for crying out loud... call in the national guard and SHOOT the whole bunch!
this can’t be happening in our nation... what I see is not real.... this is the United States of America....
How in the world is this allowed to go on? to appease the black people???? this is not how to fix this... law in order first.. LAW AND ORDER!!!!!!!!!!

Destroying statues is what the Bolsheviks did. The commies don’t want any historical reminders around. They want to rewrite history without references to history.

We are already there, but at the nascent stage.

The only testosterone Burns has ever had in his body was bought off the shelf. What a “woman”.

Howard Zinn taught classes directly to a generation of New England journalists. His impact and harm is even greater than Burns’ influence of latte sipping PBS watchers.

I can’t stomach any of his stuff, as I see it all with an air of Leftist stink about it.
I will say, the only thing I really appreciate from anything he has ever done is to expose me to the song “Ashokan Farewell” from the Civil War series.
