Complex historical men need deep layers of evaluation (See also: Columbus, Washington, etc) Layer 1: This is a great man who did great things (Moses: public projects) Layer 2: He was discriminatory, racist, and optimized for his ilk/kind whether it's racially, genderly, socio-economically, etc. (Moses: Focus on white people or at least those of sufficient socioeconomic class) Layer 3: Progress for SOME people is better than nothing. Improving public access and transportation for poor whites is better than not having anything at all. Layer 4: Partial progress is often used as an excuse to stop further progress. And if you promote one group at the expense of another, you arguably create MORE inequality not less. etc. |
