I remember during one of those deranged racial upheavals we have every few years (might have been George Floyd), some Korean-American sportscaster named Robert Lee was taken off a broadcast because the network thought his name would remind people of Robert E Lee.

Hero

Houston Police want to speak this man, but he’s not charged with a crime. HPD says a gunman was robbing people at a taqueria on S. Gessner last night. During the robbery, this man shot and killed the suspect… collected the money, gave it back to the robbery victims, and left. pic.twitter.com/EABiMcUi8Q

Byzantine American architecture

American Architect Andrew Gould’s firm, New World Byzantine, designed the beautiful Hermitage of the Holy Cross in West Virginia. This ROCOR church serves a predominantly English-speaking community that fell in love with the traditional towering Russian cathedrals. pic.twitter.com/XdgJVhglzr

However, in remote West Virginia, it's not efficient to build a Russian cathedral. Andrew asked: “How does one [efficiently] build a church that is capacious, authentic & beautiful, but not too expensive? Can we make it look American & traditionally Orthodox at the same time?” pic.twitter.com/uOa7bONnU8
