Napoleon said history is lies agreed upon. The history of many so called Confederate statues is also the history of return to “slavery” or institutional racism in the south. Robert E Lee became the hero of the Lost Cause lie that sought to justify the acts of treason, slaughter and destruction that wrecked the nation. Lee was an honorable traitor who had he lived would have disavowed the lies about a noble Southern cause that flourished after his death.
