UPCOMING EVENTS
Saturday, October 5th: 12:00 Noon - 4:00 p.m. - Flagging the VMFA, 200 N. Boulevard
Oct. 13 – MEMPHIS - JEFFERSON DAVIS PARK TO BE FLAGGED
We will flag Jefferson Davis Park located at 51 North Riverside Dr. in Memphis; on Sunday afternoon October 13, 2013 from 1:30-4:30. We are working on a hand-out specific for this park. It is fitting that we flag this park as it is one of the three that the city of Memphis has attacked. By so doing, they perpetuate the "slavery myth" as the reason for the war. The slavery myth in turn slanders the good names of our Fathers, steals their honor, and seeks to shame their descendants. THE LIES STOP NOW! The vast majority of citizens support us, and the city council knows they're wrong. Join us as we urge them to RESTORE THE NAMES of our historic parks, and return the honor of our Fathers.
