The State of Confederate Statues in North Carolina-- Part 3
I an from North Carolina so especially interested in this article.
** PITT COUNTY (1): Confederate statue in front of county courthouse taken down June 23 after leaders voted for "immediate removal."
** SALISBURY (1): Crews on July 6 removed the Confederate Fame statue after the City and UDC agreed to move it to a cemetery.
** STATE CAPITOL IN RALEIGH (3): On June 19 "protesters" (actually rioters) "toppled (actually hate crimes) two bronze soldiers from a Confederate monument. This scared the governor into ordering three monuments be removed from the grounds for "public safety."
** WARREN COUNTY (1): A monument on the courthouse square in Warrenton came down in June after outside threats were made on FaceBook.
Next, the additional McClatchey's monument removal list.
