I don’t believe that confederate monuments should be removed because of racism. They should be removed because the confederacy was a rebellion against a constitutionally elected government that attempted to destroy our great republic. If the newly freed African-Americans had not had their voting and other rights suppressed by their states most of these monuments would never had gone up.
Your assertion is not only sophomoric but right out of a government school textbook.
There’s a spiritual war going on in this nation and it’s being fought at every level.
