Statue Weary


Here’s a thought experiment for you.

Do you have any idea what was going on in the south in 1964?

Remember the 60s civil rights struggle?

Remember the church bombings?

Remember the police turning fire hoses on civil rights demonstrators?

Then think of this.

Why is it, do you suppose? That Memphis waited until 1964 to erect a statue honoring Jefferson Davis?
