That is…not the name of the holiday. https://t.co/oW01UYNH3I

I spent the day learning with a bunch of smart, enthusiastic educators at a symposium on digital literacy in higher education. So, I wasn’t home in Virginia where it was officially Lee-Jackson Day. Seriously.
So, Chris Hayes’ tweet about the name of the “holiday” in Biloxi, MS on Monday hit home today, literally. Hence, it is the Tweet of the Day.
Wikipeida has a nice summary of the states that have Lee Day or Lee-Jackson Day.or Lee-Jackson-King Day.
