More than 160 Confederate symbols came down last year after the killing of George Floyd prompted a nationwide reckoning with racism.
That count comes from the Southern Poverty Law Center, which released new figures Tuesday as part of an update to a report that tracks public symbols associated with the Confederacy across the nation.2 Confederate statues were removed in Georgia within 3 daysThe Alabama-based civil rights advocacy group reported that 168 Confederate symbols were renamed or removed from public spaces in 2020, including one marker in Arizona that was stolen.
Thats the warped world of the left to cause the social, moral, and spirutual breakdown of society under the false deceptive guise of standing for what is decent, right and just
It is history and it doesn't mean you are exonerated them. For that matter should we tear down Aushwitz and the Colosseum because people lost their lives there or the pyramids of Egypt where slaves lost their lives?
Over George Floyd as if he is the only victim of a crime when 100s are killed in inner cities each year by thugs and gangs
So history needs to be forgotten because of a few people! If so then everyone’s history needs to been done the same.
I sure hope they get rid of any monuments where a person has been arrested several times, did prision time, did drugs, dealt drugs, assaulted women, theft, trespassing and a 23 year rap sheet.
😡😡 you can’t change history you were still considered a better tool then the donkey and nothing you do will ever change that so how about you get over it already
Yawn! Confederate, Union...same thing! A bunch of peep who stole my ancestors land/s and fightin over it/them cuz they got nothin better to do than b*tch and moan like spoiled children. Boohoo, cry much? Gee, get over it. I am. Keep the land/s. All i want is my life back. But no!

How many remain? There is still a street in Arlington, VA called Jefferson Davis Hwy, among 1,000,000 other things that should have been destroyed in 1865.
Sad
Keep them on the battlefields, not the town squares. We shouldn’t honor those who laid down arms to own other people - or against this nation generally. Imagine putting a statue to commemorate the proud boys leader for the CapitalRiot
Cancel bigotry
History & healing = Redressing wrongs of history. Our forebears were not necessarily right in all that they did and made and believed. We NeedToHeal & UnityInAmericanDiversity Thanks JoeBiden and KamalaHarris
I'd say that's a good start. Every wonder why we don't have statues of Hitler or Mussolini? Because they were they enemy and they LOST! Jefferson Davis was a traitorous pig and should have always been treated as such.
The 1 Confederate symbol of hate that needs to be torn down in America is Fox News.
And without this article no one would have known/cared outside the halls of the soviet poverty law center
