Today, in Springfield TN, the Sons of Confederate Veterans, John Hood Camp, presented a program every American should have witnessed. With an honor guard and many others dressed in period clothing, the gathering in the cemetary was both solemn and inspiring. Honoring those others wish to forget, our Confederate forefathers, is not politically correct in this day and age.
Civil War history taught in the schools is a joke. Every student at every school in America, but particularly those in the South, should have the honor of hearing Dr. H K Edgerton of Asheville, NC speak on Southern Heritage, from a black perspective. He is a proud Southerner and unashamed of the history of his forefathers, fighting along side white southerners to protect their lives, family and homes.
When he hits the stage carrying the Cross of Saint Andrews (or better known as the Confederate Battle Flag), he does it with pride, chest out, head held high. When he speaks of his pride, it is with conviction like I rarely hear.
Do yourself a favor, Google HK Edgerton, then spend a little time getting to know the man!
