RE Lee intergrated the first church, was against slavery and only fought because his home state succeeded


Yes. Virginia succeeded in secession, but ultimately their secession was not a success.

Indeed but it wasnt over racism or slavery.
These Lib SJW fuqtards spin it that way but in reality in the Yankee North Slavery was legal when in the south it was no longer.

Once the general of a rebel army fighting for independence from the United States to president of Washington College in Maryland. That would never happen today

Washington College (now Washington & Lee) is in Virginia. There is a different Washington College in Maryland that still goes by that name.

His birthday is 1/19. Do they celebrate it on MLK day or the Monday before like Washington's?

Seems kind of tacky if it is celebrated on MLK day specifically.

He was a traitor and obviously on the wrong side of history but please continue with your tributes.
