Similarly, I remember when we covered the Rosenberg trial in middle school there was an implication that they were scapegoated or innocent in some way.
“Celestino Medeiros, a career criminal caught red-handed committing murder and already facing the electric chair, claimed that he was the actual killer. There was nothing beyond Medeiros’s word to support this confession and he misstated key facts…”
Sound a lot like the Central Park Five “ exoneration.
You mention Floyd but the Rittenhouse trial surely opened people's eyes to just how badly leftists lie to suit their ends.
It was so obviously a case of self defence. Rottenhouse such an earnest guy and the three he shot all comically villainous. Almost every interaction was on camera yet to this day they wail murder, and bizarrely wail about state lines.
Avrich's Wikipedia bio is illustrative: "As a teacher and historian of the anarchist movement, Avrich had sympathy and affection for the cause and became a trusted colleague of its major figures.[2] Accordingly, he sought to communicate to his students an affection and solidarity for anarchists "as people, rather than as militants" and challenged the perception of anarchists as amoral and violent. He wanted his work to resurrect the thought of marginalized anarchists, whom he saw as "pioneers of social justice" worth revisiting in the revival of libertarianism following the Vietnam War and second-wave feminism.[1]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Avrich

I definitely was taught something different in school. Haven’t thought twice about them until I read this. Everything is fake.
Great article. You should publish one on Leonard Peltier. There are a lot of parallels between that case and the Sacco/Vanzetti case.
