Operators of the Nash Farm Battlefield Museum in Hampton, Georgia, have decided to close the five-year old Civil War museum after a Henry County commissioner demanded removal of Confederate artifacts.
The museum has been run by a nonprofit organization to commemorate the site of an August 1864 battle in the American Civil War. It’s been housed in a historic building in what has been a Henry County park.
Commissioner Dee Clemmons, an African-American woman, began her demands on the museum with a request to remove a Confederate flag displayed on a flagpole.

I’m not sure but I’ll bet many black were forced to fight in this army at one time or another. But there will probably be very little history on it, which is a shame. I know that sometimes one brother had to fight another brother on opposing sides. I want my grandchildren and great grandchildren to know about slavery so that it never happens again to anyone. –Diane Stanley
