@EricLevitz I’d defend narrow, critical reverence for the Founders—that is to say, I revere the achievement of authoring the Declaration, even while grappling with Jefferson’s other flaws/abhorrent acts as a man; likewise Madison’s framework, Washington’s ceding power, etc. And while I agree — PolitiTweet.org

Fighting Nazi Germany, protecting Western Europe from the Soviet Union, being a nation of immigrants, and inventing the Internet are among the many worthwhile American projects that involved rainbow coalitions. — PolitiTweet.org

I don’t really believe that there’s a redemptive American project that can ultimately prove separable from whitenes… https://t.co/nUurm6wTAZ

@EricLevitz w/ the notion that weirdness around whiteness is part of going on, I also think there’s a pan-human tendency to want heroes and get defensive if their flaws are faced squarely. Michael Jackson still has staunch defenders. Few want to think too hard about MLK, Ghandi, & women — PolitiTweet.org
