Charlottesville To Remove confederate Statues That Helped Spark Deadly Rally

[Lesh]

Most of these monuments were put up by the United Daughters of he Confederacy

According to lawyer Greg Huffman, writing in Facing South, "[p]erhaps nothing illuminates the UDC's true nature more than its relationship with the Ku Klux Klan. Many commentators have said the UDC simply supported the Klan. That is not true. The UDC during Jim Crow venerated the Klan and elevated it to a nearly mythical status. It dealt in and preserved Klan artifacts and symbology. It even served as a sort of public relations agency for the terrorist group."[6] At its 1913 annual national convention, the UDC unanimously endorsed The Ku Klux Klan, or The Invisible Empire,[54] a book written by UDC historian Laura Martin Rose, then president of the UDC's Mississippi Division, which alleged that the Klan had rescued the South from carpetbagger-inspired racial violence.[55] Published near the height of the UDC's Confederate statue-installation and textbook-vetting efforts, the book became a supplementary reader for Southern school children.[56][57] A local chapter of the UDC funded a now-vanished[6] memorial to the Klan erected in 1926 near Concord, North Carolina.[58] As late as 1936, the UDC's official publication featured an article which lauded the role of the Ku Klux Klan.[59]

So how come most of these commemorations didn't go up until decades after the war?

Protestors Begin to Target Confederate Monuments

Most of these tributes weren't built until the era of Jim Crow, and they largely symbolize a romanticized version of Antebellum racism, not the Civil War dead.

​

In 2016, the Southern Poverty Law Center estimated that there were over 1,500 "symbols of the Confederacy in public spaces" in the United States. The majority of them are located, as one might expect, in the 11 states that seceded from the union, but as Vice aptly points out, some can be found in Union states (New York, for example has three, Pennsylvania, four) and at least 22 of them are located in states that didn't even exist during the Civil War.​

​

How can that be possible? Because largely, Confederate monuments were built during two key periods of American history: the beginnings of Jim Crow in the 1920s and the civil rights movement in the early 1950s and 1960s.​

How long after the war was the WWII memorial in DC built?...Vietnam?.....Korea?

Are commemorations of the war supposed to be erected before the war?

Nobody but moonbat freaks gives a hoot in hell what the intellectually bankrupt SPLC has to say about diddly-shit.

Damn, you leftbats are thick as hell.

Nice try...but people were still alive from those wars when the statues were erected. The majority of confederate statues were put up during the Jim Crow 20s and the civil rights movement in the 60s.

We see you...

The last of the Confederate troops lived into the 1950s, nitwit.

So all those statues were for him? Come on man, those statues were not put up to commemorate the South. They were put up because white people were pissed that blacks were gaining equality.

We see you.

The youngest of Confederate troops were in their 70s in the 1920s....Though past the average lifespan of the day, living that long was far from unheard of.

Also, Neither you nor any of the bigot assholes at SPLC are mind readers....You can stop the play acting that you are so any time now.

You have to be trying to play as stupid as you are presenting, nitwit.

Talking history, the Democrats like calling southerners in the 50s racists. They can't explain why all the Democrat States turned Democrat in the 60s. Huh ...

Democrats were the slavers. Democrats started the KKK and Jim Crow. Democrats were the lynchers, cross burners and segregationists.

Now if you're black and try to leave the Democrat party, Democrats target you for destruction and show blacks that Democrats still very much support slavery.

The past and future of the Democrat party is racism. And look at all the lily white Democrats speaking for blacks and screaming racist, racist, racist at other whites. And at blacks who defy them

lulz....That loathsome snob Stevenson couldn't even take his home state.

If Gore had won his home State, he'd have won the Presidency without Florida

[Flash]

The Libtard filth are not going to stop at erasing some of our history, are they? The shitheads want to erase it all.

Pretty soon the on statues we will have in the US will be of Dr. Martin Luther Negro, the Rosa Parks bitch and the George Floyd thug.

Statue of Lewis, Clark and Sacagawea toppled in Charlottesville

The city of Charlottesville, Va., followed up its removal of two controversial Confederate statues Saturday with the lightning-fast toppling of a third local landmark: a monumental tribute to explorers Meriwether Lewis, William Clark and Sacagawea.

Irrelevant if true.

This is what communists do. They remove history to write their own sordid lies. These idiots have no idea that Lewis and Clark mapped the route to the northwest. They travelled with botanists, surveyors, trappers, geologists etc. Can't have a statue commending those qualities. They need BLM painted in the streets.

Taking down a statue isn't "removing history" , except for lobotomized hillbillies like you who don't read books and rely on statues and AM radio shows for learning history.

It's not a good time to take them down because even one gun murder for either side's cause could be the spark that sets off a gun battle of large proportion on the streets.

Trump's support is real and it's solid. They will kill for him if Trump suggests a need for action!

Does Trump have the balls to call for violent action on his behalf.

It's not a good idea to test it, even though Trump has shown to have no backbone when he had stirred his supporters up to boiling point on Jan. 6.

This is not about wacism. Only an asshole would claim it was.

Only a racist would claim it's not

Please when you are just using the term, as a slur, like a retarded monkey, spell it with a "w", so that casual readers can easily distinguish between the rare instances of actual discussions of real racism, and retarded monkeys throwing shit.


My point stands. ONLY a retarded asshole would claim this issue is about wacism.

your panic mongering is retarded.


This is divisive and harmful to America. Selecting out certain groups that are not allowed to be proud of their heritage, is bigotry and divisive.

You would say that, but you have no credibility.

In the real world, it makes complete sense for a group of DAUGHTERS of confederate veterans, would want to put up statues to commemorate their fathers.


That anyone would have a problem with that, is them being assholes.

Should Germans be proud of their Nazi heritage?

Meanwhile in the real world, Democratic cities are violent cess pits where blacks murder each other at an alarming rate.

I'm considering the possibilities if Trump's supporters are made to face more injury, because of a cause that can wait.

You need to consider that even your military has been won over enough by Trump that would cause many to balk at upholding government.

Yes, that is America now.
Blame the blacks but don't try to escape the fact that racism created the race problem that now exists.

Will it continue to grow even larger or can it be put down by lethal police force?
