Harper's Bizarre

Dec 10, 2017

This is sort of remarkable. Back in 2005, Harper Lee, who famously wrote To Kill a Mockingbird, (and is from, of course, Alabama),  wrote a letter criticizing Roy Moore. Not about people who are “like” Roy Moore...but, no, about Roy Moore specifically.


In the letter to a historian friend, she wrote -- 


"It looks like to hell if we don't get some things changed. . . .  I dread the advent of Roy Moore's administration but its coming sure as doomsday. What is wrong with us? Are you old enough to remember when people were less ignorant? I am."


You can read an article on the story behind it, written by that historian, here.
