TMc: Confederate History & Crime Rates | Eastern NC Now

    "The 26th day of April in each year - commonly known as Memorial Day." April 26 marks the anniversary of the end of the for Georgia, for it was on this day in 1865 that Confederate General Joseph E. Johnston's surrender to General William T. Sherman at Durham Station, North Carolina became official. Johnston had been in charge of Georgia's defense, so this day marked the end of the war for Georgia.

    I am doing daily laptop research to see if erasing Confederate History and Symbols is reducing the crime rate and increasing racial harmony in the South. Someday, Slavery History will be erased if I can connect any effect or affect history has on current events. So far personal interviews with young folks reveals a total lack of interest in any history.

    Conclusion: The young man flying this flag on his truck is married to a Mexican lady and he knew almost nothing about Southern History. He flew the flag because South Carolina took down their flag-just a protest and nothing more. Perhaps Slave History and CSA history are best preserved in museums and not on the public streets. But what do I know?
