The most shameful day in American history https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-most-shameful-day-in-the-history?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
@rbreich I’m a hard no on that narrative. Since that certainly infamous and shameful day as well as before it many things even more shameful have happened for which the USA is shamefully accountable.
I don’t think hyperbole helps here. If Jan 6 was the most shameful, then the icestapo’s kidnappings and disappearings are not that bad? The cruel God-King’s very reelection isn’t? The Trail of Tears, Manila campaign, the Zoots, Jim Crow, contragate, the El Salvador death squads weren’t?
