We’re going to tear down her portrait in the Capitol the first chance we get...

3 of the 4 were Democrats. One was a Whig.

I hope one of the statues falls over on her. She’s a despicable, race-baiting, vile woman.

She couldn’t get the statues on her own as much as the little wannabe dictator wishes she could, so she had to settle for this pathetic pander.

Pelousy is obviously suffering the effects of being dropped on her head. She gets more and more bizarre every day. I am still laughing at the kente cloth virtue signalling stunt. How asinine, to see a bunch of mostly white scumbag politicians kneeling and wearing African cloth. The native-born American blacks have no real connection to Africa either, so seeing them with those stupid scarves was immediately filed under, “Can you believe that?” The whole thing was just a stupid stunt.

I thought we gave everyone but Davis a pardon?

Reconciliation clearly is not on her mind.

Let me guess, what party did these speakers belong to?

I think I remember Davis getting a posthumous pardon during the Carter administration.

Maybe the capitol building should be torn down since no one there represents the people. They just steal our tax dollars.

The Court will say you don’t have standing to bring the suit.

While we are at it let’s ban the DNC for their involvement with the Confederacy

When did we start observing Juneteenth?

I’ve heard of it but it was never a “thing”

Beats me, I had to look it up a few days ago to see what it was and now it’s supposedly a big thing.

The Democrats suppressing knowledge of their own history. Later they will claim all these people were Republicans.

Pelosi might as well remove the portrait of EVERY house speaker prior to the emancipation.

Please remember the Civil was not fought (initially) over slaves.

ALL Union states were slaving states.

That is why the underground railroad bringing escaped slaves to freedom went to Canada, because any escaped slave caught in Union states would be re-enslaved.

It is only when the war dragged on, and given the larger population of slaves in the Confederacy, that the Union attempted to cause them to rebel in several southern states by offering black slaves their freedom.

So the FIRST emancipated states were Confederacy states, not Union states.

What is all the BS and history re-writing that says that the Union and the North were not slavers?

In fact the Union states were even worse, they were the slave traders that bought and brought the slaves in ships from overseas, many slaves dying in the process.

We must thank god, that perceptions changed over the war and for the genius of President Lincoln. Grudgingly the Union as a whole came to accept the freedom of slaves and that dark page in our history was over.
