I don’t think we should be erasing/sanitising history. We need to learn from the mistakes, and we can’t do that if we erase all the bad bits.

Exactly `Yogi 

I agree too. Apart from anything-else, who decides what the "bad bits" are?

 

I had an argument with a friend about this: he believed pulling down the Confederate statues was morally justified. My response was to ask if he was also OK with ISIS destroying religious statues in Iraq and Syria, because they believed they were "morally justified" too...

Spot on Eugene 

thanks all, it was interesting

This programme has left me depressed!

every time I see KKK it a Nazi salute it depresses me... and once again we are seeing it on our streets 

That is why I wish people (all people), would put a FULL STOP on HISTORY and MOVE ON!............life can be a struggle for many reasons, but it is all WE have........

I'm currently travelling at the start of a short spell of leave this weekend (an old friend's getting married on Saturday   ), so although I hope to be watching the show "live", I won't have internet access and therefore won't be posting much. 

Enjoy the show (if "enjoy" is the right word after last week's episode), and I'll be back in touch properly next week...
