DESCRIPTION:

General Robert E Lee and General Thomas 'Stonewall' Jackson were confederate officers representing the South during the American Civil War. Both are Virginia natives born on January 19th and 21st, respectively.

In recent years there has been a backlash against all celebrations of the confederacy and its icons. Though once a state-observed holiday in Virginia, increasingly counties and cities are bypassing it. With African Americans, tying this event to the National Martin Luther King holiday weekend is insulting. Lee and Jackson were slave owners and fought to preserve slavery. Until 2000, the state celebrated all three men on the same day.
