Citizen group urges county to remove Confederate monument to avoid 'legal battle'


A group in Catawba County says legally, the county must move the Confederate monument in downtown Newton as it represents hate speech. If it isn’t moved, there could be a legal dispute ahead, Catawba County Truth and Reconciliation Co-Chair Kenyon Kelly said.
Kelly stood before the Catawba County Board of Commissioners Monday night and asked once more for the 1907 monument to be removed from county land. The group has asked the county to move the statue at almost every regular board meeting for nearly eight months.
“The solution is clear, together we can move on from this crisis with one simple step,” he said. “What we hope you will choose to do is to avoid a costly and protracted legal battle by doing what many communities across the state and nation have already done: voluntarily remove this monument.” ....

Confederate statue prompts lawsuit in Iredell County. Plaintiffs accuse commissioners of backpedaling on decision to move monument.


By Ben Gibson | Statesville Record & Landmark
The battle over the Iredell County Confederate Memorial is in a new phase after a group of plaintiffs filed a lawsuit Tuesday demanding the county remove the statue.
In the press release, the group said the Iredell County Commissioners vote to begin the removal process — before seemingly backtracking — was one of the reasons the lawsuit was filed.
In fact, on March 3 of this year, the Iredell County Board of Commissioners voted to remove the Confederate Monument, admitting in their Resolution that the monument occupied a prominent position in front of the justice system during a period of Jim Crow laws, segregation and endemic discrimination against African-Americans, and that, for Black residents, the monument continues to serve as a reminder of policies of oppression, having their roots in the system of slavery that existed in the Confederate States of America. ....
