Richmond Takes Down a Confederate Memorial Not on Monument Row

JULY 9, 2020


**  House bill earmarks $1 million to rename Army bases honoring Confederate leaders.  (I still say that those who want the names changed should pay for it.)

**  Discussion continues over McKinney monument.  (Texas)

**  Richmond removes Confederate soldiers  and sailors statue.  (This one was not on Monument Avenue.  Of course, BLM had "vandalized" it and it was removed by Richmond's mayor on July 8.)

**  Gainesville, Granbury and Waxahachie are latest to  consider Confederate statues' fate.  (Texas)

**  Gov. Bill Lee calls for Nathan Bedford Forrest bust  to be relocated to museum.  (Tennessee)

**  Monuments and statues are falling.  But what comes next?

**  If military renames Southern bases, whose names should replace the Confederate generals?
