Civil War II: Confederates in Washington State? Ole Miss, South Carolina and Virginia Schools

JULY 15, 2020


**  The Confederate legacy in Washington state.  (So, you thought that since the state of Washington was so far away from the fighting during the Civil War that it wouldn't have much, if any, Confederate situations.  Not so.  Read this.  Isn't Washington state where that city is where the mayor let rioters have part of her city for a length of time?  How long did she let them have it?)

**  Confederate statue being moved at University of Mississippi.  (At least it was not torn down by students and faculty like at UNC-Chapel Hill.)

**  Bamberg County Council votes to remove Confederate statue.  (South Carolina .  Hey, William Seaborn Bamberg had a plantation and you know what that means.  Will the city and county names be changed next?

**  2 Virginia schools will no longer be named after Confederate leaders.  (Lee-Davis High School and Stonewall Jackson Middle School.  Hanover County is predominantly White.  While I agree that the name of any school that is named after a Confederate and predominantly Black should have the name changed, this was not necessary other than PC.)
