A construction crew Tuesday began removing the empty monument pedestal under which the remains of Nathan Bedford Forrest and his wife Mary Ann are buried.
The removal of the pedestal is the first part of removing the remains themselves, which ultimately will be reinterred in Columbia, Tennessee at the National Confederate Museum at Elm Springs.
Lee Millar of the Sons of Confederate Veterans told The Commercial Appeal that the removal began Tuesday morning and would take two to three weeks. He declined to identify the contracting crew doing the work.
The remains are in what is now known as Health Sciences Park. It was previously known as Forrest Park and the soon-to-be-removed pedestal bore a statue of a mounted Forrest, the infamous Confederate general, slave trader, and early leader of the Ku Klux Klan.

Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller has asked a federal judge to stop a U.S. farm program from directing aid to racial and ethnic minorities, arguing that the policy discriminates against him and other white ranchers and farmers.
Miller s lawsuit, filed Monday in Fort Worth federal court, was the first legal challenge to Biden administration policies to be sponsored by America First Legal, recently founded by Stephen Miller and other top Trump administration officials as a conservative alternative to the American Civil Liberties Union. When it comes to financial aid, it shouldn t matter what race or ethnicity you are, Stephen Miller, a former top policy adviser to President Donald Trump, said on Sean Spicer s Newsmax show Monday.

COLUMBIA, S.C. A state lawmaker is pushing to have confederate flags banned from South Carolina license plates.
Currently, SCDMV offers one specialty plate that has the flag on it. It’s for members of an organization called the Sons of Confederate Veterans.
Richland County Democrat and South Carolina House Minority Leader, Representative Todd Rutherford, has introduced a bill to have it removed. They don’t have to change their emblem, but the state should not put that anymore on people’s license tags, Rutherford said. We need to not have any vestiges of slavery, any vestiges of that confederacy on our government property.
