Update on Georgia SCV Plates Men of the Georgia Division and Friends,This is just an update to let you know briefly what we are doing to counter the new attacks against our heritage and what you can do to help for the time being. Please share this information with the other men in your camps. [...]
The Confederate battle flag, along with our other cultural icons, is not merely an historical banner that represents the South. It is a shorthand symbol of our very ethnic identity as a distinct people–Southerners. When you attack that flag or any of our other icons, you are attacking us personally. When you say you want [...]
My Say: General Lee, Flags, Tee-Shirts, Et Al From: alanie@bellsouth.net In the last years of the 20th Century and certainly the first years of the 21st Century, we have seen an assault on just about any aspect or symbol of the Confederate States of America. Certainly number one target on the list has been the [...]
Activism From: tmanning1@triad.rr.com Dear Mr. Tremble, I personally spend very little time in flag defence. For it is not our flag that the American socialists and agnostics hate. It is us that they have real hatred and animosity for. That flag is not just a symbol of the South of the past. It is, for [...]
Rebel Flag From: rphillips@windstream.net To: tome249@webtv.net Mr. Davis, I read your letter to the editor relative to the confederate flag. Every point you make echoes the NAACP's invented arguments as part of its campaign against the south's most famous symbol, all of them are opinion, and none are based in fact. One of the [...]
Newspaper article From: confedtrvl@verizon.net I hope several of the readers of this list responded to the Roanoke newspapers article, "Real History of the War Between the States." To refer to it as ignorant is being nice. If that man were a relative of mine I would be ashamed of him and his stupidity. This paper [...]
NASCAR's Heritage From: CSSRobertELee@aol.com I will not go into a long story on the wonderful history of NASCAR. It would take me all day, to explain the beginning of this fine sport and could never name all the talented Southern men, who sweated, died and introduced this amazing experience to America. I would like to [...]
Dr. Niler is offensive to the German people From: rwaldburg2@swissinfo.org To: pyeattn@wbu.edu Dear Sir, I am writing to you in response to your opinions written in the Plainview Daily Herald last Sunday. As a German citizen I wont go to teach you now some basics in American history, just let me say that I wont [...]
Open Letter To Tim Wise From: gunsmythe@oddpost.com To: timjwise@msn.com Dear Tim: I have to tell you this time you made me smile instead of making me angry in attacking Confederate Symbols. I suspect I will be alone in that view as I've already heard 5 or 6 people who want to burn you in effigy, [...]
Re: "Still need to face our true history" (Rev. Darby, 11/03) From: colonel@37thtexas.org To: stateeditor@thestate.com http://www.thestate.com/mld/state/news/opinion/13067152.htm Rev. Darby is correct about the need to research, recall, and recognize history in a non-selective manner. I trust, however, that that means he is willing to see ALL of history brought to public attention and not merely that [...]
