I wish I'd saved it, but it was well done. Yes, to the "hurt feelings" among the RW, but a few clueless on our side too. Nikole Hannah-Jones was unapologetically herself so that may have been an issue (I won't name that specific "aversion," but you know) for some.

But, yes. Very well done and I meant to find the HULU docuseries on it but got distracted with other things. Good reminder.
