Virginia — whose state capital Richmond was once the capital of the Confederacy — is about to become the first state in the South to declare racism a public health crisis.
The Southern Poverty Law Center says 160 public symbols of those who committed treason in defense of slavery were removed in 2020. That's out of its own count of almost 2100 such statues, symbols & buildings dedicated to the Confederacy in the US.
Virginia, capital of the Confederacy, led the way in trying to erasing the honors it bestowed on schools, roads and parks, taking down or renaming 71 monuments or symbols. North Carolina was second with 24 take-downs.

Rep. Ocasio-Cortez on Congress members who may be sympathetic towards the rioter carrying Confederate flag: "The Confederacy were a band of enemies and traitors to the U.S. ... if they find more sympathy with them, then perhaps they shouldn't be serving in the U.S. Congress."
Since we’re cancelling everything relating to the Confederacy, when are we going to abolish the Democratic Party?
Confederate statues weren’t built during the Confederacy, they were built during the Jim Crow to incite fear. Jon Stewart explains:
Montgomery, Alabama, once known as the cradle of the Confederacy and later the birthplace of the civil rights movement, has elected Steven Reed as its first African American mayor in the city's 200-year history.
Is @JoeBiden ok with this type of racist talk from the wife of pro-Biden scam PAC adviser & noted fan of The Confederacy@TheRickWilson ? Is Sleepy Joe gonna disavow the racism of Rick and Molly Wilson or continue to welcome their support? #RacistRickWilson
Kayleigh, it’s not “Team of Rivals” you have in mind, but another book by a different author: “A Confederacy of Dunces.”
Today is the day Donald Trump became president of the Confederacy.
On this day, let's remember U.S. Grant's characterization of the Confederacy as "one of the worst [causes] for which a people ever fought, and one for which there was the least excuse." Amen.
