I watched the first two episodes and it really just seems like one big posthumous, metaphorical hand job for Wallace. I mean really, it's so much blather about how this guy is so great and American capitalists and conservatives are so conniving.
Gee wizz Ollie. You just keep doing it.
Sorry to hear you are so uncomfortable with the idea of hearing a different perspective.
shareExactly right! I welcome seeing this point of view and will certainly look deeper into these issues. I didn't know a thing about Henry Wallace except his name.
We have to accept the fact that our country wasn't always on the side of the angels. This series takes absolutely nothing away from the heroism of our soldiers during WWll.
And it certainly makes me wonder if we should have used those bombs. There were plenty of people in this country who were horrified by it. And it doesn't make them (or me) "commies."
One interesting factoid I think most historians would disagree with is the U.S.'s influence in winning WW1
