I keep wondering about the Ugg-slippered Lululemon-clad white girls in these protests, screaming at black cops and raiding Trader Joe's demanding "reparations."
How did they all get "called to action"?

I keep remembering this pic, not for Fauci and Soros and Gates Sr and the rest of the who's who, but for David McCullough, Pulitzer Prize winning popular historian and Yale Skull & Bonesman, on whom Bush bestowed the Medal of Freedom.

There's disagreement on who said this quote, but consider how history books are selective about the info they cover, increasingly so in K-12 textbooks. Eg, history book disappearance of the Empire of Tartary.
Imagine, how will @POTUS accomplishments be represented if he loses?

Hitler, recall, had his own historian to represent his own version of "history," George Scherff, pictured here with Mengele and Bormann, Gehlen, and his 13-yr old son George Scherff, Jr (photo collection Otto Skorzeny; I won't digress on the Scherff/Bush/Tesla rabbit hole here).

I promise to loop this around...
You may remember back in 2012, a high school teacher's speech "You're Not Special" went viral. Rather unusual for a high school speech for 200 graduating seniors. Here's Time magazine reviving it in 2015. Everyone loved it. time.com/4116019/david-…

It was presented by a beloved Wellesley High School English teacher, David McCullough, Jr.
Son of the esteemed popular historian.
Town of Wellesley is a predominantly white, wealthy, blue-state MA town, home of HRC's alma mater. Ugg slippers and Lululemon are quite popular.

To consider: was that 2012 speech, revived by Time and other media outlets every graduation time, a rallying cry to the youth to "get out and do something" ie, join this BLM/Antifa/Resistance herd?

Addendum: consider, who are the scribes of history the past few years?
