Awesome..!!!!
Good on them.
Hopefully they will succeed.
Altering history is right out of 1984, which of course was a progressive instruction manual.
And CBS reported it..well color me shocked..CNN will call these people racists
Hooahh!
This is great, thanks for posting.
Odd thing is, they will be taking on White people.
Yes! There were Black Confederate Soldiers!
You don’t learn from history by trying to destroy it by destroying symbols from it.
Destroying historical symbols is like the Taliban destroying Buddhist statues because the don’t represent the dominate religion in Afghanistan today. That is what the Mullahs in Iran do with Persian “pagan” symbols and shrines as well as Muslim shrines that are not Shia Muslim. Saudi Arabia does the same thing with anything representing NOT their dominate Wahabi Sunni Muslim faith. Destroyers of history are not trying to “undo” it (the Confederacy and slavery are gone and not coming back). They are on agendas to rewrite history on their terms, and close any open discussion of anything from that history. They are no different than the burners of books.
Kudos to these people. Glad to see some sanity.
Some common sense in Texas.
Let’s see AntiFA attack this group. The exploding talking heads will be hilarious to watch.
That’s what the left have become, the American Taliban.
Democrats tearing down statues of Democrat slave owners. Now you know why they want to erase history.
bttt
There are many more “Black” Americans that are no longer captive on the Marxist/Progressive/Liberal intellectual plantation. As many of them that can need to speak up.
If you don’t like a symbol, use it’s existence to teach any history that surrounds it, but be sure you are totally honest and don’t deny anything, don’t tear down any statement, sentiment, action by anyone that was good, just to get at any mistakes they made.
Also don’t deny the context within any history, which means don’t deny that human societies today, for the most part, all have different attitudes about many things that people did in earlier eras. And even now, in this era, people are MORE a product of what they see as their context and experience than they are of any grand and noble ideas.
They want to erase General Lee, even though if there was a top southerner more against the shameful system of slavery, and more against secession than anyone else, it was Lee. He did not wish or want secession and the Confederacy. In the end what did he think he had to stay loyal to? Virginia, his home and the colonial home of his parents and grandparents. Lee was a Virginian, and in spite of his views Virginia voted to join the Confederacy. Altogether maybe Lee was no saint, but he was not the embodiment of the devil either.
Abraham Lincoln of all people would not be tearing down a statue of Lee, or anyone like him.
But the Left is not looking for noble examples. There’s is an agenda of hate and division.
Thank you! Liberals who have been taught rewritten history have no clue how many free black men actually fought for the South but then they think the war was started over slavery.
Thanks for posting !
Don’t mess with Texas !
