Just pointing this out...a lot of the same people who celebrate "Confederate History Month"...

[Ardent15]

..are offended by "Black History Month."

1. Ironic, since the former is a subset of the latter nt

2. And those who celebrate Black History Month

aren't out trying to remove President's Day just because both (white) President's Day and BHM fall in February. In fact, what kind of self-respecting black would want to dishonor any president other than the slave-liberating ABRAHAM LINCOLN?

3. i know I heard a civil war historian or author say that Davis and Lee

never called it anything other than the civil war. It might have been Shelby Foote talking about correspondence between the two. Whoever it was was bitching about people that come up with revisionist names for the war.
I would be surprised if that wasn't true.

4. It is just awful that in this day and age people are still using confederate this

and confederate that as acceptable code for being racist.
