Abstract:
\"Silent Sam\" is a monument to Confederate soldiers on the UNC-Chapel Hill campus and has stood there for 100 years. Sixty-five people gathered Sunday to mark the anniversary not by celebration but in protest the statues symbolism of white supremacy. Demonstrators have formed the Real Silent Sam and Sacrificial Poets groups and organized protests not just at Silent Sam but also at the General Assembly.
