Add context signage to Confederate monuments

The author of this article writes about how they are against removing old confederate monuments. They argue that they are part of the nation’s history and that those depicted are still heroes of war despite what they stood for. Also, they argue that many other countries have monuments to honor dead war heroes, even if those heroes stood for values that most would not tolerate in this day and age.

Key Takeaways:

  • Confederate monuments represent a major crisis.
  • Confederate monuments represent slavery, racism, etc.
  • Other monuments represent honor unlike confederate monuments that represent evil.
