## Resource

You already know Andrew Jackson was unhinged. Duels. Brawls. A whole bullet situation. But nobody warned the mourners about the parrot.Brett found the story of Poll — Jackson's African grey — and the one detail every history teacher leaves out. We know what happened at that funeral. We know why it happened. We just don't know exactly what was said.This is a two and a half minute SILWARR that you are going to text to three people immediately. Are you sh!#ing me?Cheers!
