Episode 18: The Iconoclasm of Confederacy
Come one, come all, as we gather together to watch history being made as another history is torn down. But, it's not the history you'd think. Why are there so many Confederate statues in the United States? Where did they come from? Where can they go? Find out the long history of iconoclasm, where current events meet Hannah Montana references and the long nature of destroying the symbols of ideologies that are oppressive to a current-era... A physical manifestation of 'Cancel Culture'.
