Monuments are often built to commemorate moments in history. Removing them means forgetting the parts of our history we don’t like. George Floyd's death nearly two years ago, however, sparked critical conversations about systemic racism in the county. It also sparked a movement for the removal, renaming, and relocation of monuments and other symbols of the Confederacy.

Many people argue that Confederate monuments are important symbols of Southern heritage and a significant part of American history. Others view them as symbols of racism and white supremacy. The debate over Confederate monuments has raised some important questions about the role of public memorials in our society. Do they represent our shared history or do they represent our divisions?

In this episode, Jim and Dan discuss a topic suggested by a listener, which is the renaming of military installations that honor confederates. They will talk about how the left is erasing history, taking down statues, and changing military installations' names.

Enjoy!
