Some view Confederate statues as painful reminders of one of America’s darkest periods. But others label their removal as an affront to history. The national debate over these symbols—from monuments to license plates and flags to the names of schools and streets—intensified in 2015, after a white man massacred nine black worshippers in a South Carolina church, and again in 2017, after a deadly car attack on a crowd of protesters opposing a white nationalist rally in #Charlottesville. The dialogue over Confederate symbols may ramp up as the nation nears the one-year mark of the Virginia unrest. In this photograph, an attendee holds a Confederate flag at the dedication ceremony of the upcoming National Confederate Museum, south of Nashville, on July 20. In Tennessee, according to state data, popularity of Confederate flag license plates has hit a 10-year high. There were almost 3,300 active Sons of Confederate Veterans plates there at the end of June, the Nashville Tennessean reports. While that’s a small number overall—Tennessee has a population of around 6.7 million, and more than 5.6 million passenger license plates in circulation—it represents a 72% increase over the end of fiscal year 2015. Some proceeds from sales of the plate benefit the Tennessee chapter of SCV, a non-profit group comprised of male descendants of Confederate combatants. The group has earned almost $58,000 from the plates in fiscal year 2018, the Tennessean reports. Photograph by @markpetersonpixs—@reduxpictures for TIME
