Just like things have changed since 1982 when Brett and the boys could muscle their way though chit like this because mom was the county prosecutor. It's 2018, and in today's world Brett = Harvey W.

Didn't know Fredrick Douglas until someone mentioned him. I guess he might know who Lincoln was. Certainly Jackson, that's a given. So he is scraping the bottom of his knowledge barrel. But just give him time. He's new at this.
