Battle Over Confederate Monuments Moves to the Cemeteries
The New York Times quoted David Sloane of the USC Price School about the differences between a cemetery memorial and Confederate monuments in a public square.
“These are markers to a person’s grave,” said David Sloane, a historian at the University of Southern California who has written two books on cemeteries. “Cemetery memorials do have a different meaning than a symbolic public memorial on the highways and byways of the city or in a public park.”
