    The Famous Stone Mountain Confederate Carving The symbolic carving on the famous Stone Mountain is a sincere rendition of U.S. history. The carving displays three confederate leaders of the Civil War, and after forty-seven years of beauty, the memorials presence is now in jeopardy. This amazing carving has a dutiful home at Stone Mountain Park, because with it comes great historic value, a large financial support to Georgia state parks, and a genuine memorial embracing the struggles of our fellow men and women who have fought.

    During the 20th century, many groups across the nation were facing problems with the new urban-industrial order. Progressivism was defined as a broad-based response to industrialization and its social byproducts, which were immigration, urban growth, growing corporate power, and widening class divisions. Most progressives were reformers, who strived to make the new urban-industrial order more humane instead of overturning it and believed that most social problems could be solved through study and organized effort. While the reformers reoriented American social thought, novelists and journalists reported corporate wrongdoing, municipal corruption, slum conditions, and industrial abuses. Magazines like McClure’s and Collier’s stirred reform energies with articles exposing urban political corruption and corporate wrongdoing, some magazines later appeared as books.…

    But, I would like to add something-many believe we learn something from statues and I hope that is true, but I know many just glance. Maybe in the place where the statue stood there should be a sign that says what was once here, the history of that person/event, and why it was removed. Basically, I want a plaque that says we learned something. It is now taking us far too long to realize we cannot change the…
