SPLC Launches Digital Initiative to Promote Honest Discussion of Confederate History

 
The following announcement was submitted by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). 

Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas all devote public time, energy, and resources to celebrating “Confederate Memorial Day” or “Confederate History Month” each year. We launched a digital initiative this month to correct the false narratives of the “Lost Cause” mythology, which idolizes people who fought against the United States in order to preserve slavery.
