We should literally never stop evaluating our history.

There is a difference between living in pre civil war America and pre-civil rights America and living during the civil rights era and actively opposing it.

That’s Storm Thurmond legacy and it’s not accidental. He’s not allegedly against civil rights that was his platform.

And while everyone needs to be judged based on their times, he was was regressive and racist by 1950s standards.
