We're continuing with Part 2 of discussing the connections between the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC), the Lost Cause, & Confederate monuments. In Part 2, we'll look at how the UDC used public education and history to further advance the Lost Cause narrative, and talk about the status of Confederate monuments and military bases today.
