It’s the 150th anniversary of The Civil War and the effects are still with us. Celeste Headlee reflects on her family’s role in the Civil War; the branches of her family tree include both slaves and owners. The Civil War is over, but the fight continues; we still argue over whether to fly the Confederate flag and how to teach the history of the war.
