The Confederacy Under Attack: Memorials, Monuments, Statues...All Gotta' Come Down
JUNE 9, 2020
** A solution to the Confederate monument problem. (A very hateful article from the Atlantic magazine.)
** Virginia has the most Confederate memorials in the country, but that might change. (No kidding!! A book was recently published locating and giving the history of most if not all those Confederate monuments in Virginia. Now, it can be used to locate where they were. Of interest, I thought I saw the original publisher was the University of Virginia Press and now it is printed by Southern Illinois University Press. Of course, UVA and its town of Charlottesville have taken a major role in getting rid of these monuments so I am not surprised they might have backed out of printing this book.)
** Louisville removed the Castleman statue. Is this the end of the Confederate memorials?
** Protests are bringing down Confederate monuments around the South.
** Arizona secretary of state: Confederate monument should be moved from Capitol.
** NASCAR's Bubba Wallace wants to rid race tracks of the confederate (Confederate) flag. Why wouldn't CNN know that Confederate is a proper name an should be capitalized? Ol' Hurricane Bubba.
** Confederate Vance monument debate reignited amid George Floyd protests. (A very liberal, left-leaning group of folks.)
