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.
Erasing history won’t make it go away
M L K was a communist and a womanizer, take down all of his monuments and rename highways and schools.
it’s people like you that needs to be removed!!!
I have a question for the people of Baltimore who removed the Monuments in the middle of the night. ARE YOU NOW A BETTER AND SAFER COMMUNITY FOR REMOVING THEM OR IS EVERYTHING THE SAME AS WHEN THE MONUMENTS WERE THERE? We should now see Baltimore as having no financial problem, no law enforcement problems, no more problems of any kind. They should be the safest, happiest, best community in America to live if not then these officials lied about the monuments being the problem and removing them.
Doesnt change history!
An enterprising person could market replicas for people to display on private property.
No way
The liberals are trying to remove anything that was in their past

THESE DIRTY ” N ” CAN’T DO ANYTHING IN THE LIGHT OF DAY BECAUSE THEY KNOW OTHER PEOPLE WOULD PUT A STOP TO THEIR MADNESS.. THESE STATUES ARE NOT JUST TEIR HISTORY BUT THEY ARE THE HISTORY OF ALL OF US.. HOW ABOUT WE START TAKING DOWN MLK STATUES.
