When one is speaking about the need to know history, one should be aware of history and what is actually taking place. Perhaps I missed it, but I did not see you mention what was actually happening in Charlottesville before Jason Kessler (Alt-Right) and Wes Bellamy (alt-Left) cooperated to being violence and murder to Charlottesville. http://bit.ly/2fUrXLo December 19, 2016 Charlottesville Race Commission Report
From checking with Zwartz Talk, it appears that Liberals in particular are offended by the cooperative, inter-racial efforts of Charlottesville to install permanent historic displays in order to lay bare the racism of slavery and its aftermath. Instead, Liberals generally want one thing: censorship. They want the Jim Crow era statues torn down with no opportunity to publicly correct the racist KKK Lost Cause narrative.
