Erasing Our History

Here we go again, the left cancelling American history and trying to erase the past: Confederate Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery to be removed despite GOP opposition

"Despite efforts from a group of Republican lawmakers, a Confederate statue in the Arlington National Cemetery will be removed in the coming days.

"The Reconciliation Monument, known as the Confederate Statue, is part of the push to remove military installations named after the Confederacy in the wake of the summer 2020 Black Lives Matter protests.

"According to a press release from the national cemetery, the statue will be removed from the cemetery by Dec. 22."

Did you get that? It's called the Reconciliation Monument, and it was built to unify the North and the South after the Civil War.  Obviously the politically correct liberals in our country don't see the irony in this.

What's next on their agenda? Demolishing Arlington House because Robert E. Lee lived there? I wouldn't be at all surprised.

I'm not even a Southerner, but I love American history, and I respect historic monuments and sculptures. All of this is destructive,  not constructive, just as political correctness and the DEI obsession are destructive to our country, not constructive, but these people are simply catering to a minority of complainers and not using their common sense. What a shame.
