Richmond, Virginia’s BLM-aligned mayor, LeVar Stoney, ordered crews to dig up the remains of Confederate General AP Hill, which were buried beneath his former monument. The digging up of the General’s remains was a long-time goal of Stoney and BLM, as they’ve sought to remove all traces of the Confederacy from Virginia’s capital city, where monuments to Christopher Columbus and other White historical figures unrelated to the Civil War have also come under attack.
The desecration of General AP Hill’s resting place came after the BLM-aligned Mayor of Richmond, Virginia, LeVar Stoney, ordered his remains and monument removed from city property, along with the rest of Richmond’s Confederate relics.
Because the monument to General Hill doubled as his resting place, a battle to keep it in place ensued but Stoney and BLM ultimately got their way.
On Monday, December 12th, the statue serving as the General’s headstone was removed, and the following day, his remains were dug up.
