"ESPN has removed an announcer from its broadcast of the University of Virginia’s first football game next month because he has the same name as a Confederate general memorialized in statues that are being taken down across the country.

The network announced late Tuesday that the announcer, Robert Lee, a part-time employee who calls about a dozen college football and basketball games a year for ESPN, would no longer participate in the broadcast of the Sept. 2 game in Charlottesville, Va., which became the center of violent clashes this month during a white supremacist gathering."

This particular Robert Lee is Asian-American.

3. And here you get ( really clever ) don't you realize that ( the concept of homosexual and gay marriage) did not even exist during Martin Luther King lifetime...LOL.

Who the heck is Saint Monica(?)..

And here is the Clincher did you not know that hundreds of thousand of white males gave theirs life blood to liberate black Africans from systemic government control genocide.
Much of what you write is on point. However, this notion that same sex marriage is a new concept is not accurate and it greatly predated the 1960s.

It existed during the time of the ancients.

Slavery was only one aspect of that. Most southerners didn't own slaves and didn't rely on them for survival and yet still united to leave the security of their farms and fields to fight. Why do you think that is?


Careful you are exposing the creation of alternate history, that claims that slavery was the major reason, even when it was just one and the economic issue was the primary one. They teach alternate history today, when they bother to teach any at all.

not every man who wore a confederate uniform was a racist or slave owner, they only fought for the south because they wanted to remain loyal to their home state

If you're anywhere to the right of people such as Eric Garcetti or Jerry Brown, they'll do that anyway.
