No common ground : Confederate monuments and the ongoing fight for racial justice Cover Image Book

No common ground : Confederate monuments and the ongoing fight for racial justice / Karen L. Cox.

Cox, Karen L., 1962- (author.).

Summary:

"When it comes to Confederate monuments, there is no common ground. Polarizing debates over their meaning have intensified into legislative maneuvering to preserve the statues, legal battles to remove them, and rowdy crowds taking matters into their own hands. These conflicts have raged for well over a century--but they've never been as intense as they are today. In this eye-opening narrative of the efforts to raise, preserve, protest, and remove Confederate monuments, Karen L. Cox depicts what these statues meant to those who erected them and how a movement arose to force a reckoning"-- Provided by publisher.
