Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street and building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the party is always right.

$500,000 Jefferson Davis chair stolen in Selma will be a toilet unless Confederate group hangs banner, email claims

Classy group "white Lies Matter" avenges the evil of slavery, promotes BLA activist wanted for murder

A Confederate monument valued at $500,000 was stolen in March from a Selma cemetery, officials confirmed today.

a group that claims to have taken the monument, the Jefferson Davis Memorial Chair, sent emails to AL.com saying they will give the chair to the United Daughters of the Confederacy if that organization agrees to hang a banner outside its Richmond, Va. headquarters and leave it there for 24 hours.

The banner bears a quote from Assata Shakur, a Black Liberation Army activist wanted by the FBI for the 1973 murder of a New Jersey state trooper: "The rulers of this country have always considered their property more important than our lives".

"Failure to do so will result in the monument, an ornate stone chair, immediately being turned into a toilet", the email states. "If they do display the banner, not only will we return the chair intact, but we will clean it to boot".
