Old Virginia Blog

WBTS & historical musings, wandering thoughts, book comments, and an occasional rant from the backroads and byways of Old Virginia from Civil War author Richard G. Williams, Jr - one of the few remaining men who has actually lived in Virginia all his life. :)

"From Virginia sprung the Southern Mind, a mind which favoured the local community, Burkean conservatism, the folkways of ancestors, an unwavering orthodox Christian faith." ~ Alphonse Vinh

Another PC Attack and Cover of History

Click on this post title for a rather enlightening piece about the ongoing debate over the display of a historic cross at Wren Chapel on the campus of the 2nd oldest college in America--the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia. This particular paragraph is especially interesting:

"The Informer has invited President Nichol to oppose Mr. D'Souza and publicly defend his decision for the first time, but President Nichol ignored the invitation for nearly a month, having his staff repeatedly tell Informer editor Amanda Yasenchak that he was "unavailable" or "out of the office." On one occasion when his staff claimed he was "out of the office," eyewitnesses on campus confirmed to Ms. Yasenchak that President Nichol was in fact present in his office."

This type of conduct is, sadly, symptomatic of many of those enforcing politically correct dogma. Discrediting anyone who strays from their elitist orthodoxy is another common ploy. As I've argued in previous posts, the PC attack is not exclusive to things associated with the South and her heroes, though that is one of the favored targets. The revisionists want to erase, or discredit, all symbols, stories, heroes, etc., which are fundamental to the Nation's
Judeo-Christian heritage & foundation. This is just one more example of their insidious labors toward those goals.
