My family has been in Alabama since before 1800. My great-great grandfather, his father, his brother, and his uncle all enlisted in the Confederate Army in Jasper, Alabama in 1862. By the end of the war, 3 of the 4 were dead. None of them owned slaves. They did what they thought was right. The past is a foreign country to us.

I hate the fact that I support confederate memorials almost exclusively because of what opposes them.
