Largest Confederate monument under scrutiny amid US racial reckoning
A park near the US city of Atlanta with a giant carving of Confederate leaders would publicly acknowledge that it was a gathering spot for the Ku Klux Klan, relocate Confederate flags and remove the carving from its logo under proposals unveiled to address criticism of its Confederate legacy.
Stone Mountain Memorial Association chief executive Bill Stephens presented the proposals to the park’s board, saying Stone Mountain needed to change to remain financially viable but could not “cancel history”.
