The era the statues were erected were not to commemorate the South's best Traitors to the United States of America...they were put up to intimidate black people during the Jim Crow era, where black people were kept from voting and new laws were created to imprison them, and laws written to take the right to vote away from prisoners who always had the right to vote in prison before the civil war if white.... and segregation etc etc etc
History shows they were not put up, for any kind of goodness or commemoration in a good sense of an alleged war hero or heritage.
That's just a fact.
so WHY is keeping these statues up, when they were placed where they are for nefarious and evil reasons, so important? Makes no sense to me???
They belong in a Museum, to commemorate History, with a lot more details.
The monuments in Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland, California, etc were erected by Southerners against the wishes of the citizens of the state?
