    “Confederate Army Lt. Col. William F. Beasley gifted the county the monument in 1902.”

    Barely 100 years old? Fuck it, tear it down. You don’t memorialize the losers in a Civil War.

      Yep. Doesn’t even have historical significance. It’s just another of those Jim Crow statues meant to oppress black people after slavery ended. Fucking NC.
