SEPTEMBER 19, 2020
** Oregon bans Confederate flag, other hateful symbols from public schools. (One Oregon representative says the Confederate flag "is the symbol of treason, racism and white supremacy. Hopefully they will also include every BLM symbol as that means racism, rioting, arson, looting and hate crimes.)
** VCU board of visitors votes to remove names of Confederate supporters from its campus. Some 16 such names are on the hit list. Of course Virginia Commonwealth University is in Sad R. which sort of explains it. One of the names is the Tompkins-McCaw Library, named in part for Sally Tompkins. And, we all know what a horrible person she was.)
** Letter to the Editor Sept.19, 2020: Confederate memorial at Louisa courthouse must go.
** Rumor control: No, Wilmington's Confederate statues aren't coming back up anytime soon. (North Carolina. They were removed for "public safety" three months ago undercover of the night. By law, they now will need to be returned. They won't. Just as well, with BLM around, there would have to be 24-hour surveillance to prevent hate crimes being done to them.)
