Confederate statues

Confederate statues are as much a part of American history, and what some would call culture, as Martin Luther King statues, whether people love them or hate them. Removal of one kind of statue and not the other isn't multiculturalism, it's one group claiming the park the statue sat on as their own, and it will never unify everybody.

As long as a country says one kind of history is okay as long as everybody likes it, but the other is not, the country will remain divided, since one group, or culture, as some would call it, doesn't really respect the other. That isn't multiculturalism, though America has always been a melting pot, and is made of many different groups of the same (human) race. If people have to remove, forget, or pretend something never existed (including Confederate statues) to validate themselves, they don't really respect it, they only respect their own group (or most likely self).

Confederate statues

A surface object to represent the power struggle that was the Civil War, as all wars are really power struggles.

The Civil War wasn't about Confederate statues any more than it was about slavery, but if certain people are listened to and taken seriously, you would think it was.

Confederate States of America 

A rebellion led by rich, southern plantation owners and politicians against the Federal Government of the United States of America.

The main cause of this rebellion was, first and foremost, slavery. The Union (another name for the U.S) was slowly becoming more and more abolitionist in the 1800's, and as a result the Southern elite felt the need to disregard any basic human decency they had left and fight for the enslavement of millions of African Americans. This was the main reason the Southern states seceded. Things like "States rights" and tariffs are secondary reasons and were very minimal compared to slavery.

In late 1860, numerous states in the deep south announced their secession from the Union after the election of Abraham Lincoln. Despite being an abolitionist, Lincoln pledged not to interfere with slavery in the South. The southern elite, however, ignored this and militias fired on numerous federal forts and properties throughout 1861, one such being Fort Sumter in North Carolina, which marked the beginning of the American Civil War.

The war would go on for 4 years, ending in 1865 with General Lee's surrender to General Grant.

Look at those idiots waving the confederate flag. I bet they couldn't even spell "Confederate States of America".

Confederate States of America 

A group of states that didn't like the way United States of America was going, so they said they weren't really part of the United States of America anymore. The rest of the country didn't like this, so they started a war. A lot of people think the war was fought over slavery, but that was just one issue among many. Most southerners didn't even own slaves, although most of the ones who did owned a lot of them. The next most common thing is to own one slave or no slaves.

If the Confederate States of America had won, things would be so much better now. People would've abolished slavery eventually and the Confederate States of America were much more for state rights than our government is today.

Confederate statue protest 

Mansa Musa owned slaves, and might have been the wealthiest person to ever live. If there was a statue of Mansa Musa standing in every major city in the world, people most likely wouldn't try to remove it. The image/idea that black people are marginalized and in need of saving by other groups is a relatively new one if you look at all of history, it's mostly just the last couple hundred years people came up with this image/idea. The reality is the people protesting the statues weren't doing it in the interest of humanity or human rights, they were doing it to support the agendas of the people they were following, especially the college dorks.

The image/idea that life is unfair to black people only nowadays is a recent development. The reality is life has always been unfair to most of the people living on the planet at any given time in history, no matter their sex, shade of skin, sexual orientation, religion, political beliefs, or personal beliefs about anything. People who try to get people to unify usually have a similar agenda to the ones who got them to divide in the first place. The Confederate statue protests are no different, the same ones trying to get people to divide try to get them to unify again before they wake up. The same ones that tear everyone and everything apart are the ones telling people they should be together on something.
