We should celebrate it by highlighting all the Southern heroes who did NOT betray their nation.

What a great idea! There’s dozens of examples and pics in the thread.
Angry Staff Officer on Twitter: "Tomorrow begins #ConfederateHeritageMonth in seven US states. Celebrate it by spreading the word that southern hegemony in secession was a lie - this thread celebrates all the southerners who remained loyal to the US, and to their oath.… https://t.co/nvgvH0Q33D"
Also, Alabama brothers David and William Birney. David would rise to division & corps command, William commanded black troops in combat. Both rose to the rank of major general and managed to be true to their country.
