I am not sure how I feel about this.
I think the "South" and the "Confederate States of America" and the entire notion of the "South Will Rise Again" is nonsense. If you don't to be part of the United States, then leave the United States - don't try to break it up.
On the other hand, I don't believe we should be ignoring our past history. Our history, for better or for worse, is our history. Then again, these monuments weren't put up direct after the American Civil War, was it? Wasn't these monuments put up during the Jim Crow era with the soul intention of intimidating blacks?
