KKK-Linked Statue Rises Again in D.C.
from The Non-Prophets · host Atheist Community of Austin
The U.S. capital is disgracefully reinstalling a statue of Confederate General Albert Pike, infamous for alleged KKK ties, opposing racial integration, and supporting the expulsion of freed slaves. This decision, after the statue was toppled by George Floyd protesters, isn't about preserving history, but a blatant symbol of bigotry and hatred that activates deep-seated trauma for many. It's a "sermon in stone" demonstrating a disturbing commitment to "owning the libs" and perpetuating white supremacy over fostering genuine inclusivity. This move further exposes how historical figures are wielded to fuel cultural bias, prioritizing fear and prejudice over a truthful, inclusive understanding of our past and honoring a failed traitor.News Source:Statue Of Confederate General With Ku Klux Klan Ties To Be Reinstalled In Washington, D.C.By Mitti Hicks for Black Enterprise\August 5, 2025🔗 https://www.blackenterprise.com/confederate-general-albert-pike-statue/The Non-Prophets, Episode 24.34.3 featuring Helen Greene, Jonathan Roudabush, and Eli SlackConfederate Traitor's Return 🗽Albert Pike: Statue of Shame 🗿DC Reinstalls Bigotry 🏛️History or Hate?
