He found the least objectionable monument to a Confederate soldier (one which depicts a dying Confederate general being comforted by a Union soldier) and used it to counter my statement that these memorials were largely meant to reinforce white supremacy. The statue he references, which is not even strictly a Confederate memorial, was built in 1993 whereas the majority of the statues that have garnered controversy, like Silent Sam, where built between 1890 and 1930.
