  • Context is king

    There are lies, damn lies, and social media.. This program sheds light on the controversial few whose influence and actions continue to reverberate in the life we live today. The main takeaway is - these few reflected to times in which they lived and to judge them on todays standards misses the point of the contribution (good and not-so-good) they have made to history.

  • Nice try my British friends, but…

    Harris, Haig, and Cromwell were all butchers.

    Sometimes a society needs such men in times of war, but it doesn’t obviate the fact that they were butchers, every one.
