Good morning from Porte Crayon’s hometown of Martinsburg, West Virginia where it’s warmer than I like it to be — the high around 80 degrees today. Pretty sure you’re not supposed to sweat for no reason in October, but here we are. Thankfully, things are supposed to cool back down tomorrow.
Why doesn't Martinsburg give Porte Crayon his due? It seems the elephant in the room may be the spread of Jim Crow and Lost Cause ideology in the area. Does Martinsburg have any Union monuments at all?
