Americans are understandably divided about the legacy of the most memorable commander of the Confederate States Army, but does Robert E. Lee deserve to be called a traitor? Should Lee be regarded in the same light as Benedict Arnold? In an effort to refute this idea, I have offered some comparisons.
I welcome rebuttals and will post a link here if someone offers a credible video rebuttal with a thoughtful opposing viewpoint. The Civil War is an important chapter in our nation's history and it's only through discussing its history publicly that we will save the entire history of the Civil War from being dehumanized.
