Ted is absolutely right. Honoring a KKK Grand Wizard is ok with everyone?
No, Ted is not.
In the first place, there is a good deal of disagreement whether NBF was actually in the KKK at all - And he most vociferously denied any involvement with the KKK...
And even if every damnable bit of it is true, which I don't believe, or am neutral in, the other half of the story is that after the war, NBF was one of the most conciliatory voices trying to heal troubles between blacks and whites in the South To the point of being denounced by many. So at the least, it should be considered that the man had a genuine change of heart, and that at some expense.
It has been a long time since I did that research into the Civil war. But that is the takeaway that I was left with.
I would say leave well enough alone, and Tennessee is none of Ted's business.
