Today is Confederate Memorial Day in Alabama...commemorated here and in several other Southern states.
Alabama State offices are closed.
Yes, including the Alabama Capitol where the Confederacy was founded.
| Confederate graves in Montgomery. |
btw: Juneteenth, a federal holiday recognizing the end of slavery, was recognized statewide in 2022. The legislature must still decide if it will become a permanent state holiday.
