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."

22 Americans Who Deserve Monuments More Than Any Confederate General-- Part 3
16. Newton Knight, Southern Unionist
17. Juliette Gordon Low, Girl Scouts
18. Madge Oberholtzer, anti-Klan
19. J. Robert Oppenheimer, atom bomb
20. Jesse Owens, Olympics
21. Mark Twain
22. Ida B. Wells, journalist, Civil Rights
Being deep into history, I like to see as many things marked as possible. But I sure don't agree with the taking down of existing statues.
