My interview about the Arlington Confederate Monument, removed in 2023, on @npr.org @hereandnow.bsky.social SecDef wants to put it back. It’s the most racist monument I’ve ever seen. www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2...

10 years ago, this video debuted. Death threats followed. In 1861, southern citizens seceded to protect slavery. US Army soldiers destroyed slavery, freed 4m from bondage and saved the USA. Now, the video has 35m views. Slavery was immoral then. It’s immoral now. www.prageru.com/videos/was-t...

First review is in for "A Promise Delivered: Ten American Heroes and the Battle to Rename Our Nation's Military Bases." Pub date: 11/11/2025. "A sharp-edged argument for de-commemorating traitors." The battle over the names has only just begun... www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews...

#RDay at #westpoint. New cadets still take a unique 1861 anti-Confederate oath. “This oath will not permit that . . . [a cadet] shall set aside his allegiance to the general Government whenever a band of traitors and rebels shall choose to set up a defiant authority.” Here's Ike's 1911 Oath.

Trump may have changed the base names back, but we will still honor the heroes! The battle continues. Want a free copy of my upcoming book? Goodreads is giving it away. www.goodreads.com/giveaway/sho...

Eisenhower wrote this note the night before D Day. Taking responsibility in case the invasion failed. “The troops … did all that bravery and devotion to duty could do. If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt, it is mine alone.” True leadership.

@tyseidule.bsky.social I just finished read Robert E Lee ad Me. Thank you. I am taking my Texan great nephew to my state capital, Springfield Illinois this summer to visit Lincoln sites. His parents are concerned that he is not learning the full story of America at school. They may be right.

Happy Birthday U.S. Grant. The finest soldier to ever wear a US Army uniform. Destroyed Lee’s army, freed 4m from human bondage, destroyed slavery “the cause and pretext of the rebellion,” saved democracy and the United States of America. Huzzah!

What’s the definition of a “fan”? Gives a 1-star review on Goodreads 7 months before pub date.

From #AHAPerspectives in 2020: Historian and retired brigadier general @tyseidule.bsky.social explains how white supremacy and deference to "local sensibilities" created the US Army's Confederate problem. 🗃️

Hey folks! Want a a free copy of my next book: "A Promise Delivered: Ten American Heroes and the Battle to Rename Our Nation's Military Bases." We do tell the story of Hal and Julie Moore. Their names aren't on Fort Moore, but their legacy lives on. www.goodreads.com/giveaway/sho...

@tyseidule.bsky.social's book "Robert E. Lee and Me" is excellent for many reasons. It's especially enlightening on the names of U.S. Army bases. I am constantly recommending this book.

Worth remembering that the Naming Commission was inclined to replace Bragg with Medal of Honor recipient MSGT Ray Benividez, but the community -- and especially Gold Star families -- wanted the name Ft. Liberty.

Another good book about the South in the US after the Civil war is Robert E. Lee and Me. us.macmillan.com/books/978125...

Books every White Southerner should Read: Robert E. Lee and Me outlines U.S. Army General Ty Seidule's long and complex reckoning with the Lost Cause mythology of his upbringing and education in Virginia. It outlines how he was forced to reckon with the realities of Virginia History. #civilwar

I just gave Robert E. Lee and Me: A Southerner's Reckoning with the Myth of the Lost Cause by @tyseidule.bsky.social a rare 5 star review. It was excellent.

Coming Veterans Day 2025! "A Promise Delivered: Ten American Heroes and the Battle to Rename Our Nation's Military Bases." The story of the namesakes of the army bases - true American heroes who fought for our country, not against it. #history #usarmy #heroes

Today, Mississippi celebrates MLK and Robert E. Lee together. It’s wrong! My OpEd. #MLK #MLKDay mississippitoday.org/2025/01/20/r...

Hey folks! A New Year’s deal. “Robert E Lee and Me” for a Buck 99.

Just got done reading Robert E. Lee and Me by Ty Seidule (except the epilogue, tired). A very good read about coming to terms with the legacy of ones country and state. From here on, I shall refer to the old slave plantations as "enslaved labor farms" as Ty Seidule does.

I wish every American would read Robert E. Lee and Me by @tyseidule.bsky.social I'm a west coaster, born and raised, and even I had a lot of myths to dispel and propaganda to be disabused of. For starters, I'll never use the term 'Union Army' again. It was the US Army, the same then as it is now.

Another great non-fic work was "Robert E. Lee and Me: A Southerner's Reckoning with the Myth of the Lost Cause" by @tyseidule.bsky.social. A compelling blend of memoir and history about the legacy of the Lost Cause Mythology in the U.S. military and the American South.

Thanks! Great company!
