Maryland's Flag Has Confederate Symbols. U.S. House Votes to Remove Confederate Monuments from Gettysburg

AUGUST 11, 2020


**  VERIFY:  Yes, Maryland's state flag has a Confederate symbol.  (Marylanders who fought for the Confederacy used the Crossland Banner.  Now, this flag has to go.)

**  Letter:  Confederate flag is a symbol of hate.  (I'm beginning to think BLM flags and banners are also symbols of hate.)

**  NAN Georgia leads peaceful rally  for the removal of Confederate statue.  (Augusta)

**  Decades ago, a press association dedicated a plaque to a Civil War-era journalist who supported slavery.  Now it wants it removed.  (Plaque at Fortress Monroe for John Mitchell, Irish freedom fighter.)

**  Figard:  Don't forget the actual Confederate heritage.  (slavery)

**  Opinion:  US House voted to remove rebel monuments from Gettysburg.  The Senate must stop this.  (Passed House July 24 by a 224-189 vote.  has a provision to have all Confederate "commemorative works"--  every monument, statue and possibly all informational  brigade and regiment markers, removed not just at Gettysburg, but all National Parks in the U.S.  This is why Democrats must be stopped.)

**  Georgia city  confronts future of site where slaves were sold.  (Louisville, Georgia)  (I think it should be allowed to remain where it is as it shows a sad aspect of slavery.)

**  Confederate flags fly worldwide, igniting  social tensions and inflaming historic traumas.  (Ireland, Brazil and Germany)

**  Historical ignorance and Confederate generals.

**  Letter renews calls for removal of Confederate monuments  at Texas State Capitol complex.

**  No, Trump didn't tweet this about the Confederate flag.  (A false social media account went out.)
