Left-wing pressure continues across the country to undertake Soviet-style historical revisionism and remove all traces of monuments to the Confederacy and those who died on its behalf.
It’s one thing for the winners of wars to write history, but why has America suddenly become preoccupied with rewriting that history to pretend it never happened?
The clash between far-right and far-left extremists in Charlottesville, Virginia last weekend just accelerated the drive in some cities to get rid of Confederate monuments. That movement is predicated on the belief that the American Civil War was fought solely over the issue of slavery.
What that perspective overlooks is the historical fact that a number of Southern states decided to secede from the United States and form their own country with its own constitution – The Confederate States of America.
Obscuring that fact is the high emotion currently around the issue of race in America now. On the next page, learn the city that just removed four Confederate monuments in the dead of night, and what it plans to do with them.
they are going way too far with the removal of these statues…jeez, I wish they would knock it off…that includes the libtard politicians
Wait until they see ( or rather don’t see ) what happens to all of their historical icons ! Boy this is going to be fun !
if it makes African American feel like they have achieved something. yet they still live in these states?
Go ahead move all in Civil War monuments and watch your tourism drop to zero
Those that erase history are doomed to repeat it……III%
And so it starts, the rewriting of history
She can’t just steal the statues they’re public property. Any city should let the citizens vote before a memorial is taken down.
And yes, that woman “mayor Pugh” is uglier than Maxine Waters.
Just like when the Colts left Baltimore.
Sho Nuff?
