【】"Absolutely," Pierson said.
About a week after President Donald Trump defended people who marched with neo-Nazis in Charlottesville, former Trump campaign spokesperson Katrina Pierson called slavery "good history" during a Monday appearance on Fox News. 。
I'm not quite sure what to type from here. Pierson was on Fox along with John Hopkins University professor Wendy Osefo, who often appears on Fox News as a liberal counterweight. They debated whether Confederate statues should be taken down from the U.S. capitol. 。

Thanks for signing up! 。
I don't know if she's confusing remembrance with lionization, or doesn't care about the distinction, but, anyway, Osefo responded by asking, "Slavery is good history?"。" 。
"Absolutely," Pierson said.。
You kind of have to watch the whole thing to believe it. 。
