NEW: The #Durham City-County Committee on Confederate Monuments and Memorials urges local leaders to "move forward swiftly" & remove the base of Confederate statue that remains on Main Street. Protesters took down the statue itself in August 2017.

What message do we want to send with our public memorials, asks @RobinKirk, and how will those memorials reflect our own divergent values while speaking to later generations?

I'm reading Sherrilyn Ifill on #lynching and the reconciliation process, and this passage really speaks to why I think the future of #ConfederateMonuments should be handled on a local level: if we are ever going to heal, we need to begin by talking to our neighbors #postdoclife
