Arlington National Cemetery

**  What to do with the Arlington Cemetery's Confederate memorial.  (Washington Post.  What do you think the Post wants done with it?)

***********************************

DECEMBER 30, 2022

**  John Lewis statue to be placed where Confederate monument ince stood.  (It always angers me when a Confederate statue is replaced with one of a black person.  They should have left the Confederate one and added the Lewis one.)

**  Arlington Cemetery mulls  whether to preserve or dismantle Confederate monument.

Georgia, Virginia and Georgia Supreme Court

NOVEMBER 2, 2022

**  Monument of Rep. John Lewis to replace Confederate monument in Decatur.  (Georgia.  I'm for adding Rep. Lewis' statue, but keep the Confederate one as well.)

What Is a Confederate Flag Apologist? Moving Those Statues. Oregon, Georgia, Confederate Flags, John Lewis and Florida

JANUARY 28, 2021

**  Dalton Confederate statue will move to new location.  (Georgia)

**  Botetourt County leaders accept committee's report on Confederate monument, further discussions expected.  (Virginia)

**  Fate of Confederate general statue a priority in Rome as city's committees restart meetings.  (Georgia)

**  Renowned Confederate flag apologist paid $25,000 to bail out an Oregon Capitol invader.  (Of course, Oregon is the state that allowed idiots to riot for how many months in Portland?  Right next door to Washington which allowed rioters to form their own country in Seattle.  Something must be wrong with the water in the Northwest.  An interesting article in the Center Square Oregon.  Very anti right.)

**********************************

JANUARY 29, 2021

**  Confederate general and KKK leader Nathan Bedford Forrest's name could be replaced by Hank Aaron at Atlanta High School after the Hall of Famer's death at 86.

**  Memorial to John Lewis replacing Decatur Confederate monument.  (Georgia.  He is worthy of having a monument in his honor.  However, I don't want to see every Confederate monument removed replaced with one to a black person.)

**  Bay City  business that flew Confederate flag once contracted with Panama City.  (Florida.  So?)

Confederadication: Tarring and Feathering a Criminal Offense? John Lewis, Macon, Negro Bar, and a Confederate Face Mask

JANUARY 23, 2021

**  Criminal charges   under review after  Confederate statue 'tarred and feathered,' painted with clown makeup.  (Allendale, Michigan. Two recent acts against the statue. The culprits admitted who they were, but not afraid, at the time, of breaking any law.  Maybe they were wrong?)

**  Task force backs John Lewis tribute at Confederate monument site.  Decatur, Georgia.  John Lewis deserves a statue or commemoration, but I'd hate to see it go up at the Confederate statue site.  That is rubbing salt into the wound.)

**  Macon wrestles with history over dispute over Confederate statues.  (Georgia)

**  'The Confederate flag starts flying':  Park's controversial name stirs debate over race and history.   (Folsom, California.  Park's name is "Negro Bar."  Well, you know, the name Negro.  This name comes from where black miners came during the Gold Rush days in the state.  I don't know, but to me, this would be a historical name and shouldn't be offensive.  You never think of black prospectors when you hear the words Gold Rush.)

**  On first day back at school, Oakville High student wears Confederate flag face mask.  (Missouri.  Again, are BLM face masks allowed?)
