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."

What to Do With Confederate Monuments? Take a Look At the End of WW II
From the browbeat "How did we treat monuments to white supremacists when they weren't our white supremacists?" by Matthew Dessem.
White Southerners have strong ties ties to the past.
These monuments are historical in themselves because of how long they have stood.
Attempts to remove them are sparking the current round of violence.
This was written after the sad affair in Charlottesville, Virginia.
