The city council voted to take up the decision on Confederate monuments with a deadline of Summer 2022. Those meetings have yet to happen.
Newby then handed off the task to Freeman, who took over as council president on July 1. Freeman has convened no meetings about Confederate monuments.
"The stunt they pulled only makes it harder for City Council members to ignore the issue and let it go," he said. Todd said he's written several emails in the past month to City Council members and said he's gotten no response from them, including from Freeman. The group said it used the flight to protest the removal of Confederate tributes in Jacksonville and Baltimore. The group said those wanting to remove monuments are"cancel culture tyrants."City Council memberson its annual strategic plan that they would decide by summer 2022 on the monuments by considering options ranging from taking them down to leaving them as they are.
