The Historian's World

[Steve]

We had to diffuse a recent situation at Surratt House Museum where there was a misunderstanding related to the current issues surrounding the American Civil War and some of the effects that have lasted for generations. A visitor posted her hurt feelings (and anger) on social media, and that required careful thought in putting together a response.

Laurie, if you don't mind my asking, are you able to share more about what exactly what was upset about?
