Even Sherman and Carson? That SPLC on Cannon Hinnant
AUGUST 13, 2020
** There's a deal to move Greenville's Confederate monument, organizer says. (South Carolina)
** Confederate symbols to be explored in college's latest virtual teach-in on social justice. (Virginia Tech)
** Will Monterrey County be stuck with its Confederate street names? (California. Also some other names like William T. Sherman, Kit Carson.)
** He set out to show his son DC's 68 Civil War forts. Protests made it more than a diversion.

** In rapid 'reckoning,' SPLC reports 38 Confederate monuments have been removed in the US since George Floyd's death. It's a lot. (Southern Poverty Law Center. They, however, or really busy counting and rejoicing at the removed statues. But, they said nothing about Cannon Hinnant, the murdered 5-year-old white boy in North Carolina.)
** What should replace Confederate statues? (Wants statues to famed black people. Must they all have to be Blacks? Aren't there some deserving whites?)
