William J. Barber II’s excellent Feb. 8 op-ed, “Repenting America’s original sin,” made me remember my early life. Times change, and people change. Virginia’s government officials should be judged by who they are now and, as Mr. Barber suggested, by what they do now to promote social justice. In this regard, we have seen the use of blackface since the 1800s, as Mr. Comey pointed out. Mr. Barber showed us that people are starting to look at things through a different lens and act accordingly, as has Virginia Gov.
