Redux of an excellent meme made by a previous memer.

Here's the original meme which I believe I already posted in this stream.

I found it here on a Google search: https://me.me/i/fold-it-up-and-put-it-away-robert-e-lees-18502690

Has the ImgFlip watermark but I can't seem to find it on the site.

Robert E. Lee and Jefferson Davis opposed Confederate memorials in their lifetimes.

--“I think it wiser,” the retired military leader wrote about a proposed Gettysburg memorial in 1869, “…not to keep open the sores of war but to follow the examples of those nations who endeavored to obliterate the marks of civil strife, to commit to oblivion the feelings engendered.”

The majority of Confederate statues were erected decades after Lee's death, between the 1890s and the 1920s, at "the height of Jim Crow, of state-sanctioned segregation, disfranchisement, and lynching."

The more you know.
