HOUSTON โ€“ The โ€œSpirit of the Confederacyโ€ statue has been removed from Sam Houston Park. Mayor Sylvester Turner said it is one of two Confederate statues that will be removed before Juneteenth. The statue will be relocated to the Houston Museum of African-American Culture in Midtown. Turner said his decision to remove Houstonโ€™s Confederate statues from public parks marks a major turning point at an important time in our history. You donโ€™t see any statues honoring any of the Nazi regimes in Germany and you definitely wouldnโ€™t see statue honoring Nazis who fought with Hitler in any Holocaust museums,โ€ Douglas told KPRC 2.

In rare move, N. Carolina county removes Confederate statue

Read full article: In rare move, N. Carolina county removes Confederate statue

Workers load a Confederate statue onto a truck after it was removed from its spot in front of the historic Chatham County courthouse in Pittsboro, N.C. early Wednesday, Nov. 20, 2019. The removal comes months after Winston-Salem officials removed a Confederate statue from land there that had passed into private hands. It has been rare for public officials to take down Confederate statues in North Carolina since the enactment of a 2015 state historic monuments law restricting the removal of public monuments. A University of North Carolina catalog of monuments says the statue depicts an anonymous soldier holding a rifle with its butt resting on the ground. A state tally shows Confederate monuments are located at contemporary or historic courthouses in about half of the state's counties.
