To close their campaign with an ad featuring a parent who waged a campaign against Toni Morrison\u2019s novel \u2018Beloved,\u2019 it\u2019s just kind of unheard of. It\u2019s unheard, and it hearkens back to a long tradition in Virginia history. My father-in-law was the governor who ended segregation in Virginia, integrated public schools, and he was hated for it at the time in the 1970s. He died just three days ago. People are writing about how courageous he is. Lynnwood was 98 years old. He thought he had helped Virginia turn away from dog whistles and appeals to segregationist attitudes. Glenn Youngkin\u2019s preaching of the big lie about electoral fraud and copying Donald Trump\u2019s line, which he started the campaign with and now at the end featuring this activist who went against Toni Morrison\u2019s book <em>Beloved<\/em>, it\u2019s harkening back to a day gone by in Virginia.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>He added, \u201cIt was a strategy that used to be successful, but I do see Democrats very much being reminded of why we turned away from that kind of politics. We\u2019ve made such progress, and we want to keep the progress going, not fall back into this kind of division that opens up all of this scar tissue and wounds that Virginia has experienced so plentifully.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Pam Key on Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/pamkeyNEN\">@pamkeyNEN<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Senator Tim Kaine (D-VA) said Sunday on NBC\u2019s \u201cMeet the Press\u201d that Virginia gubernatorial candidate\u00a0Glenn Youngkin\u2019s (R) campaign \u201chearkens back\u201d to the days of segregation.
