A New Battle to Preserve Part of the Cedar Creek Battlefied in Virginia

JANUARY 22, 2022

**  3 Charlotte streets officially drop names tied to slavery, Confederacy.  (North Carolina.  Only one of the three were renamed for Blacks.  And that name, the Montford Point Street is entirely a good one as that was where black Marines trained during WW II.)

I don't mind the changing of names of streets or other items so long as they are not ALL renamed for Blacks.

**  Proposed  Virginia Sheetz on Civil War site draws opposition.  (Middletown, Virginia.  This is where a the Battle of Cedar Creek was fought on October 19, 1864,  and the proposed 19.5-acre site is considered a key part of the battlefield.)

Now, this is what I should be writing about  in this blog, not the hurtful stuff that I normally cover.  I wonder how the other side feels about the loss of an actual battle site.)
