The Case for Retiring “Confederate Heroes Day”

The Case for Retiring “Confederate Heroes Day”

“As we come to know more about the morally repulsive aspects of our national history—and, more importantly, face those realities—removing symbols of our collective failure in the past is not an attempt to deny our history. Rather, it is a sign of growth, a willingness to face our history.”

Timeless reading in a fleeting world.
