Baltimore Quietly Removed All 4 Of Its Confederate Statues Overnight

All four of Baltimore’s Confederate statues were removed overnight, just days after a white nationalist rally erupted into chaos and violence in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The Baltimore City Council voted unanimously Monday night to immediately take down the monuments after more than a year of indecision.

City crews began the removal process at 11:30 p.m. Tuesday and finished around 5:30 a.m. Wednesday, according to The Baltimore Sun. Hours earlier,President Donald Trump had defended the white nationalist demonstratorswho gathered in Virginia this weekend, ostensibly to protest the removal of a Confederate statue.

Bravo Baltimore. I think we'll see a lot more of this in the coming years.

Why were there Conferderate statues in Baltimore in the first place?

That was my first thought.. also, Baltimore is also like 65% black.

Maryland was considered a southern state since it is south of the Mason-Dixon. Why do we have any of those statues?

Historical reasons I suppose.

More Americans died in the Civil War than any other war in history.
