    It's great to see my home town recognized... Va. Is what made America. Richmond was the first capital. First slaves were brought here. No one ever recognizes Va... Thanks for visiting and sharing my city and it's history...

      Rosco, I was born in Lexington, Virginia in Stonewall Jackson's house. His home in the late 40's to the mid-'50s was a community hospital. Lexington has changed so much to be "correct". I have lived in RVA since 1970. The night they took his statue down on monument avenue I cried.

    Did you see the grave of Lewis Ginter? The windows are made of Tiffany stain glass. It's absolutely beautiful.
    Somewhere out there, there's a documentary PBS showed about it. If you can find it, watch it! It really talks about the cemetery's history of being considered 'a park first, and a cemetery second'.People would come on beautiful days with their families and picnic on the hills. I like alot of the work they've done, but I don't really love the pavers around j Davis. They're making it too modern. Also, signs say you can't picnic there anymore...

    • @VloggingThroughHistory
      @VloggingThroughHistory  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      He likely died on the Spangler Farm, not Culp's Hill. Any Confederate dead that were found were reburied in Hollywood Cemetery so if his body was located, it's there. If not, he may be one of the dead that have yet to be found. They had pretty good records of the burials though, so Hollywood is most likely.

      The mayor of Richmond ACTUALLY THREATENED the descendants of General A.P.Hill,who was actually buried under his statue and then said that he was going to dig him up with city employees doing it. The state of Virginia had to step in and tell him that if he did it,he would go to prison for desecration of a grave which is a CLASS SIX FELONY here. The family has since moved the remains to an undesclosed location and the statue went with it

    Interesting tour. I was a bit surprised by the name. As a non-US viewer the name Hollywood is very much one I associate with LA, but it occurs to me like this might simply be one of those common literal names that most nations have. I assume then that most of the trees in or around the cemetery are holly trees?
    Sad to hear the cemetery is vandalized. While I disagree emphatically with the view of the confederate states and the cause for which they fought I also strongly believe that you shouldn’t disturb the resting places of the dead.
    I suppose it is one more indicator that the wounds of the civil war and slavery are still bleeding in the US, never truly healed despite the progress made.

      The only reason the wounds of slavery and racism aren't truly healed is because the left and indeed race baiters who constantly focus on it like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and the media (even our clowntown "President") constantly pick at the scabs.
      We passed the necessary legislation approximately 60 years ago. We're all different... nothing can or will change that fact so let's stop talking about it, mmk?

      You are correct! The Marxist/Communists, the fake illegitimate President, liberal mainstream media, woke corporations, our educational system, hollywood and our sports institutions use the narrative of racism to divide people. They are teaching white children that they are racist for being born white, they teach black/brown kids that they are oppressed and victims and they push the narrative that the police and our beautiful country are systemically racist...they tell you everything is racist...capitalism, math, a border wall to protect our country.....so we must burn it all down and create a new equal society. Cultural Marxism is evil and the Truth will prevail. God wins!

      @Ryan Dumas Well, I agree that systematic racism was a thing in America many years ago, and some effects might still be felt today. But is America systemically racist now? Are there systemically racist policies In America currently? I don't believe so. Do you?

    I once had a teacher who got pretty upset when she found out she was related to General Robert E Lee. Do you believe that we should see him and other confederates in such a hostile way or should we respect them for fighting for what they believe in,regardless what they were fight for(SLAVERY)

      They were traitors to the US, so don't think so unless you know for a fact they were against slavery.
      It's almost like being proud of your ancestor fighting in the Wehrmacht. if you know they weren't fighting for the cause of the Nazis, you can be proud.

      Most confederates did not fight for slavery. They fought to protect their states from invasion.
