On Wednesday, 47 leaders of conservative nonprofits sent an open letter to the media warning
against using the notorious "hate map" put out by the Southern Poverty
Law Center (SPLC). The leaders denounced any news organization that
would cite the SPLC's list of "extremists" and "hate groups" as if it
carried moral authority. "The SPLC is an attack dog of the political
left" and should be treated as such, the leaders wrote.
"To
associate public interest law firms and think tanks with neo-Nazis and
the KKK is unconscionable, and represents the height of irresponsible
journalism," the leaders declared. "All reputable news organizations
should immediately stop using the SPLC's descriptions of individuals and
organizations based on its obvious political prejudices."

I am happy to tell you my friend, who I learn Talmud with has a great grandfather who was a decorated Confederate soldier. That is one side of his family. Another side also has a Confederate soldier but not decorated.

I though he had some connection with the South, but I asked him openly just the other day. Also I just looked up his letter and the other great grandfather from Perry Georgia there is no information about. So in his family there was only one known decorated Confederate hero. The other one was probably in the army but there is no information about that.
ReplyDeletethere is no information about that.
DeleteHave you researched him online?
