From today's featured article

Woodrow Wilson was the President of the United States during World War I. He was the only president to come from New Jersey, and was a college professor at Princeton University.

Wilson grew up in the South. In his early years he witnessed slavery and the reconstruction era.

Wilson was initially well-regarded by historians but his legacy has deteriorated in light of his horrific racism, that set the United States back by decades and inspired worldwide attacks on minorities. He segregated the federal bureaucracy and the military. He showed The Birth of a Nation, a movie that celebrated the Ku Klux Klan, as the first film to be screened in the White House. When approached by civil rights leaders, he dismissed them derisively.

Quote from an ancient Greek

"Remember the lessons of history. Remember how often whole peoples have allowed themselves to be persuaded to go to war by ‘wise’ men—and then been utterly destroyed by the very enemy they agreed to attack! Remember how many statesmen have helped raise new leadership to power—and then been overthrown by their own protégés! Remember how often leaders have chosen to treat their friends like slaves—and then perished in the revolutions caused by their idiotic methods! How many powerful men have craved to dominate the world—and by overreaching have lost everything they once possessed!" - Xenophon

Quote from an ancient Roman

"For that the power to distinguish between good and less good is the property of wisdom is evident surely even to the witless; so that the serpent was a benefactor rather than a destroyer of the human race." - Flavius Claudius Julianus (Julian the Apostate)
