Fate of Lee monument in Richmond to be argued Tuesday before Virginia Supreme Court

Horns honking, flag waving in Richmond at Lee Circle after Chauvin s guilty verdicts RICHMOND âThe Virginia Supreme Court will hear arguments Tuesday in two cases aimed at barring the removal of Richmondâs Robert E. Lee monument, the last Confederate memorial remaining on Monument Avenue in the wake of George Floydâs death. Last June, Gov. Ralph Northam ordered the monument moved from state property at North Allen and Monument avenues. The General Assembly appropriated money to do so and in a budget amendment repealed the 1889 law that accepted the deed for the land and agreed to protect the monument in perpetuity.

stripes - Virginia court to hear challenges to removal of Confederate Gen Lee statue

Among the central issues to be decided by the court: Is the Commonwealth of Virginia bound by a decision made by state officials more than 130 years ago? Or can the state undo that decision because the public s attitude toward Confederate symbols has changed drastically since then?
