Can't redo them and its not realistic to view them through the prism of the current. The real problem is currently we are still engaging in perpetuating these problems and boards like this indicate there is still a widespread and even growing segment of society who prefer to be on the wrong side of history and continue to make things worse. The current and the future can be addressed, but man there are sure a lot of losers who won't even let that conversation happen.
