I remember watching that as a kid. Imagine if they came out with that today, and how the "woke" crowd would go utterly insane.

CPT (Join to see) - Yes, and Congress just enacted their bill to have all Confederate statues removed from the Capitol Building, including former Senator Jefferson Davis, among others.
Virginia (I was stationed at Walter Reed, Ft. Myer and Ft. Belvoir for a combined total of nearly 7 years. Virginia was once a proud state (Commonwealth) and Fairfax County had one of the best public school systems in the country. Today, Northern Virginia is overrun with immigrants and families of all of the embassies and the school have to employe dozens of translators for the parents who refuse to speak English, even when they know how.
The government there has gone utterly "woke," and Confederate statues of noble men like Robert E. Lee are being destroyed, desecrated and removed. All that to satisfy revisionist history mongers! I suspect the world is laughing at us.
