Group Puts Up Billboard Calling for Removal of Seattle Confederate Monument

The Make It Right Project erected a billboard on capitol hill, reminding local Seattle residents of Confederate memorial found in the Lakeview Cemetary. The Seattle monument was built by the United Daughters of Confederacy, who has advocated for its movement to a more appropriate location. The Seattle monument is carved from a piece of Stone Mountain, the place the Ku Klux Klan held a ceremony commemorating their rebirth, in 1915.
