**  Confederate-inspired statue features young black man.  (Richmond, Va.  The new one in front of the art museum.

**  Teaching Confederate monuments.

**  Confederate monuments, memory and history.

**  A little real talk about Silent Sam.

**  UNC will not challenge the judge's order tossing out the Silent Sam settlement.  (OK, judge, when will you or someone in authority order the police to start arresting the UNC students and faculty responsible for tearing the statue down.  I would also like the judge to make a ruling on the legality of the UNC students and faculty for their tearing down the statue.  Is it legal to tear something down you don't like?)

UNC wants Silent Sam returned to campus, but hasn't said what they would do with it.  Obviously, the statue can't be put back up as the students and faculty will just commit hate crimes against it.
