> I take issue with, in parts of it he has an elitist, typical Yankee patronizing tone against the South, but overall it’s well done work

I'm not sure why anyone should expect the South to escape criticism for defining itself on racialized chattel slavery; fighting a war largely to preserve that system; having Jim Crow, lynching, etc.; continuing into the modern day to wish to rename things in favor of treasonous Confederates; being literal economic deadweight that benefits from an influx of tax dollars from Blue states (Yankee states, and "Left Coast", in this nations model) via the Federal government, even while voting against "s0cIALism" and constantly denigrating Yankee and Left Coast cities and states.

Renaming things in favor of Confederates is actually being pushed from the guy from NY, to be fair.
