**  Removing a Confederate monument?  This bill would require Idaho legislature's approval.  (Idaho?  Why would Idaho have a Confederate monument?)

**  Flag Wars:  Does Confederate flag symbolize identity or slavery?

FEBRUARY 1, 2021

**  A new Civil War monument will be built  on the Eastern Shore.  It would honor Union troops.  (Virginia)

**  'We do not conduct campus celebrations of one of these state mandated holidays:  Confederate Heroes Day.  (University of Texas-Dallas)
