Watching a small island in the book, carefully picking one out of the old dusty vault in the library, well-known objects attracted attention in my poem. In this book, two African American men have guitar, and this picture is stagnant. I was immediately fascinated by this poem gathering. Kevin Young's "Confederate Dead" is a letter engraved on a cursive body. I turned to the back of the book, "jazz" and that "blues" suddenly appeared from the endorsement of the paper and entered my brain.

A monument of 50 feet of Lee Square built in 1891. It is a hero commemorating Jefferson Davis, veteran veteran Steven R. Mallory (Federal Navy Minister) and Edward Airsworth Perry (Federal Governor and Governor of Florida 1885-1889), and "Confederation of Confederates" of Pensacorian Confederates. Mayor Pensakora asked for dismissal. "The Memorial Advisory Committee for the Commemorative Memorial Commemorative Memorial Committee of the delegation of seven people consisting of seven people, centered on the monument" of the Constitution Square (1879) proposed to the city council in 2018 to save and add the monument. "

In 1900, Congress allocated part of the Arlington National Cemetery to the death of the Alliance war, and in the occasion of the 106th anniversary of the Federal President Jefferson Davis' birth, President Woodrow Wilson presented the monument there. The upper female figure represents "South", wearing a crown of victory, the other character in the center also represents "South" and the word "Constitution" captures the shield (left). On the decorative board next to the monument, the figure of the crying "nanny" holding a white baby kissing a child's father is drawn - the southern army officer - goodbye (right)

Women sympathetic to the federate have organized many groups including Kentucky. After the war, the women of the South Confederation gathered funds for the war monument and its loss, ensuring the burial of the deceased, including the distribution of graveyards and parts to veteran veterans in the Confederates. By the 1890s, the memorial movement was controlled by the Federal Union (UDC) and United Alliance Veterans (UCV) which promoted the "reasons for loss". Creating meaning after the war is another way to write history. In 1895, women's organizations supported the establishment of federal monuments near the campus of the University of Louisville.

Henry Grady may have declared the death of the South Confederates, but its memory permeates the thought and behavior of white southern people. The reason for the loss is beyond the south. A group of women such as federal joint daughter groups joined veteran veterans in order to protect the alliance's past. On an anniversary they built a southern monument and a famous veteran veteran. In the south, the town built the statues of General Robert Lee and other Allies. At the turn of the 20th century, the idealized "reason for loss" existed not only in the south but all over the country. For example, in 1905, Thomas Dixon of North Carolina State announced a novel "Klammman" depicting KKK as a southern heroic defender against the corruption of African-American and northern carpets under rebuilding. Bag "Tyrant. (This movie almost reproduces KKK.)
