The Confederacy Under Attack-- Part 236: Bid to Block Monument Removal Fails in Louisiana

From the April 5-6, 2016, Google Alerts for Confederate.

**  'Heritage Preservation Act' would permanently enshrine Confederate icons, shame.  (Alabama)  (Loss)  A very mean article written by the Southern Poverty Law Center.  No big surprise here.

**  Bid to Block Removal of Confederate Monuments Rejected.  (Louisiana)  (Loss)  The bill to protect them failed to get enough support to advance in the Senate.  No big surprise here.  When we win one, now that is a BIG surprise.

**  Artwork replaces Confederate monument in Reidsville.  (North Carolina)  (Loss).  A Confederate monument stood at the center of the roundabout from 1910-2011 but was knocked down in a car crash.  The SCV failed to get it placed back there, but tried.  The other side sure took advantage of this one.
