    Join us for part 2 of our conversation with Ms. Bendler, Ms. Nardi, Ms. Devino, Mrs. Simmons, and 11th grader Emma on the topic of "cancel culture" and whether it is bad for America, or just another term for accountability for bad behavior. In this final section, the panel debates the validity of several instances of "canceled" individuals from Alan Dershowitz's book, and gets into some of the controversies involving removal of Confederate statues as well as proposed cancellations of other historical figures such as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.
