Thought I'd drop in to post this. The NC Legislature passed a law to protect Confederate monuments

from removal. It's an important speech from a Duke University professor showing those monuments aren't really about heritage, but white supremacy. Thank you for your attention. See you later. Had to post this due to its timeliness.

4. Won't protect them against explosives. I wil laugh if those begin to blow up.

The people in power right now would just as soon see everyone dead as treat people of color with any respect. And their kids feel the same way, just to make sure it keeps going.

This will go on until they are removed by force. Just like the last time. Losers of the Confederacy.

5. I'd be happy with all the public streets, spaces, and buildings named after Confederates renamed.

As for the monuments. Well, it's art. Maybe move them into private venues.

Nobody is ever going to remove biggest monument to traitors...
