On March 12th, WTVC of Chattanooga, Tn, reports that H.K. Edgerton was seen in Ringgold, Georgia, wearing a Confederate uniform and carrying a Confederate flag. He is there to oppose the removal of the Confederate flag from the city's flagpole.
"I'm here because your town council climbed into bed with the politically correct folks who are practicing social and cultural genocide here in the south land of America."
What is especially surprising about this story is that H. K. Edgerton is a black man!!!

This blog grew out of my "Down Da Road I Go Blog," which was originally to be about stuff I was interested in, music and what I was doing. There was so much history and Civil War entries, I spun two more off. Starting Jan. 1, 2012, I will be spinning a Naval blog off this one called "Running the Blockade."

An Interesting Person
H.K. Edgerton, 58, of North Carolina, is a southern heritage activist and former NAACP officer. He is planning to march into Midland, Texas, to show his support for Confederate history.
This is a remarkable show of support, but what makes this even more surprising is that Edgerton is a black man.
In 2002, he walked from NC to Austin, Texas carrying a Confederate battle flag.
He marches against "the wholesale and deliberate destruction of the positive aspects of Southern history by self-serving politicians and the media." (Hear that Mitt!!!)
"Southerners overwhelmingly still see themselves as Southerners, regardles of race, and most of them are not fooled by the propaganda."
He has a wbsite at http://www.southernheritage411.com/
Dec. 11th Odessa, Tx, American.
It has a list of black Confederates, a big list of slave narratives, and a lot of other items of interest.
