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."

Civil War II-- 589: How Racist Is the SPLC?
From the September 17, 2017, Google Alerts for Confederate.
** Changing history? No -- 32 Confederate monuments dedicated in the past 17 years. This according to the very racist Southern Poverty Law Center which really does serous research on all the things they want removed.
This includes public schools, plaques and monuments. Iowa has had three dedicated since 2010. Maybe the SPLC could work more on finding ways to end the mayhem in Chicago instead of keeping track of Confederate monuments.
** Tensions put spotlight on Confederate monument in Houston park.
** How the U.S. military still celebrates Confederate heroes. (Military base names, of course.)
** U.S. military leaders condemn racism following Trump's comments on Charlottesville violence.
** ** Now black lawmakers say its time to get rid of Confederate statues in Congress, including Jefferson Davis and a host of rebel military officers.
