Confederate Memorial Day after 150 Years
- Details
- By Dr. Terry Lee Rude
The following message was presented to about 200 attendees of the Confederate Memorial Day Service at Springwood Cemetery in Greenville, South Carolina, Sunday, May 1, 2011.
The Greenville camp of the Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV) and the chapters of the United Daughters of the Confederacy held Confederate Memorial day on Sunday, May 1. The official date is May 10 in commemoration of May 10, 1863, the day Stonewall Jackson died, but we pick a convenient Sunday near the 10th. Just a few days prior to that Sunday some SCV members were alarmed by things they read in The Greenville News.
One concern was a County Council person who stated that we just ought to forget about the “Civil War.” Another was Jesse Jackson’s claim when he spoke to Southside High School April 11, one day before the sesquicentennial celebration of the firing on Fort Sumter, that a third of Southerners owned slaves. Where did he get such a large figure?
