Fitting Tribute or Painful Reminder?

My name is Mary Sophia Bodden and I am a freshman student at Texas A&M University Corpus Christi. My hometown is San Antonio, Tx. In my free time I enjoy reading, spending time with my friends, watching Netflix and participating in athletics. I am a member of Learning Community E, and the objective of this assignment is to create a piece of writing that goes out into the world and makes things happen. I chose to write about the removal of Confederate statues and Monuments in relation to the Battle of Gettysburg and the "Gettysburg Address."
