**  Far-right activists protest with Confederate flags at UNC's Unsung Founders Memorial.  )North Carolina.  And those who pulled down the Silent Sam statue must have been Far-left.)

**  The traveling sculpture challenges the story Confederate statues tell.

**  A state-by-state list  of racist Confederate monuments that have been removed so far.  (Mic.  I'd like to know what those statues did to be considered to be racist.  Plus, this group wants all Confederate statues replaced with ones of black heroes. )

The False Cause, St. Augustine, Indian Wars, Lee Removed from Capitol

DECEMBER 21, 2020

**  Review:  New book seeks to differentiate between Confederate history and historic memory.   (With a book titles "The False Cause:  Fraud, Fabrication, and White Supremacy in Confederate Memory" you can kind of guess whose side Adam N. Domby is on.  Required reading for NAACP, BLM and SPLC.)

**  Letters:  Confederate memorial should have stayed put.  (St. Augustine, Fla., removed Gem Loring statue in the pre-dawn hours.  Why is it that so many Confederate statues come down during the night time?  Isn't that when the bad guys operate?)

**  Resolution to remove 'Indian War' cannon on Decatur City Commission agenda.  (Decatur, Georgia.  In June they removed the Confederate obelisk.  The removal of Indians  following the Creek Indian War of 1836.  It was placed by the UDC.)

**  Confederate  Gen. Robert E. Lee statue removed from U.S. Capitol.  (Taken shortly after 4 am.  Again, a night-time removal of a Confederate statue.  Night-time is the right time for criminals and other deluded people.  This at orders of the Va. governor, quite a piece of work.)

**  Statue of Confederate general toppled in DC.

**  Juneteenth march in Fort Myers draws crowd to commemorate the end of slavery.  (Florida.  And yet, all the parades for the 4th of July were canceled.)

At Least They Weren't Our Statues and a Funny Movie Trailer

March 18, 2020

**  Why activists are vandalizing statues to colonialism.  (The Conversation--  Statues around the world are being "vandalized" not just ours.  Two in Canada and one in South Africa.  Shows that a real can of worms has been opened.)

**  Activist filmmaker.  (From the March 17, 2020, Style Weekly.  Spike Lee's screenwriter, Kevin Willmott, has a mockumentary called "Confederate States of America."  Make sure you watch the movie trailer in the article.  It was hilarious.  I had to watch it twice.  So much better than just throwing red paint on a statue.

Since neither of these were attacks on Confederate statues I would have to classify that the virus moratorium is still on.

But seriously, make sure you watch the movie trailer.

Well Done.  --Old Secesh
