@zakalwe Oh! I didn't see that. But yeah, "mistake."

@GottaLaff For every high-profile person of color they restore, there are hundreds they have permanently disappeared from their version of history.

Only the most famous people’s stories will be saved due to public outcry. How many will be forgotten due to this naked racism?
