[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Confederacy lasted 4 years, that’s hardly a deep routed history. It’s all about glorifying the old southern white lifestyle built on the backs of salves. Also according to the news this morning the streets in Alexandria that are named after confederate leaders were named in the 1950’s. What was the purpose of that? Go back to the previous names like Water Street etc.[/quote] It was actually a law in the City of Alexandria that streets running in a certain direction through the City had to be named after Confederates. I am not sure when they repealed the law but it was definitely still on the books well into the 2000’s[/quote]
