New York honors a slaver
The current hysteria in the USA by the liberals, leftists, and race baiters is a full assault on statues and names connected either directly or remotely to the Confederacy and / or slavery.
Remember that: Now let us go back to the year 1633 AD in the United Kingdom. This was the year King Charles I and his wife Henrietta Maria gave birth to James Stuart. Upon his birth his father the King designated him Duke of York. Hence: James Stuart Duke of York. In 1683 he headed the Royal African Company, a slave trading company.
In 1664 King Charles granted him the Dutch territory in the New World known as New Netherlands and New Amsterdam. The Duke changed the names from New Netherlands to “New York” (current “New York State”), and New Amsterdam to current “New York City.”
The name “York” in New York State and New York City pays honor and homage to a slaver. His Royal African Company purchased slaves in Africa and transferred them across the Atlantic Ocean to North and South America. In keeping with the current hysteria in the USA, the name “York” should be expunged from both the state and city which honors his name. Can we have a little consistency among the lunatic fringe in the USA?
James Stuart Duke of York, slaver:

Rochester New York Remains a Sanctuary City
On Tuesday, February 21, 2017, Mayor Lovely A. Warren announced that Rochester City Council approved a resolution affirming the City of Rochester New York’s status as a Sanctuary City. The resolution was submitted earlier in the month by Mayor Warren and all nine members of City Council.
“Rochester is not a city that holds people down and kicks people out,” Mayor Warren said. “We are a city that views diversity as a strength, and by providing access to jobs, safe neighborhoods and quality educational opportunities to all, we can build even more avenues to success. After all, we are the place where Frederick Douglass penned an abolitionist newspaper as he helped slaves to freedom and where Susan B. Anthony cast the illegal vote that forever changed history. It is our duty to carry out the legacies of Anthony, Douglass and so many others, and stand by the many individuals who continue to make this city and this nation great.”
The original resolution making Rochester a “City of Sanctuaries” passed City Council in 1986. The updated version uses language consistent with today’s terminology, and states that City resources will not be used to create a registry based on a person’s national origin, race, religion or otherwise, and consistent with the 1986 resolution, that City personnel shall not inquire or request proof of immigration status or citizenship when providing services or benefits, unless specifically required to do so by law.

SUMMARY
=======
Albert Sidney Johnston (February 2, 1803 – April 6, 1862) served as a general in three different armies: the Texian (i.e. Republic of Texas) Army, the United States Army, and the Confederate States Army. He saw extensive combat during his 34-year military career, fighting actions in the Black Hawk War, Texas War of Independence, the Mexican–American War, the Utah War, and the American Civil War.
Considered by Confederate States President Jefferson Davis to be the finest general officer in the Confederacy before the later emergence of Robert E. Lee, he was killed early in the Civil War at the Battle of Shiloh on April 6, 1862. Johnston was the highest-ranking officer, Union or Confederate, killed during the entire war. Davis believed the loss of General Johnston was the turning point of our fate.
Johnston was unrelated to Confederate general Joseph E. Johnston.

The moment that we recognize the impact of an unintended consequence, a new story unfolds. Ideas that arise from unintended consequences are deeply personal. An unintended consequence forces us to reassess our assumptions and challenge our narratives.
Unintended Consequences is the official theme for TEDxPhiladelphia 2019.
The daylong multidisciplinary conference will bring together engaging speakers, performers, and participants to share their stories and experiences of unanticipated moments, their challenges and unexpected opportunities that arose from this, and how it's shaped who they are and what they do today.

SUMMARY
=======
John Hunt Morgan (June 1, 1825 – September 4, 1864) was a Confederate general in the American Civil War.
In April 1862, he raised the 2nd Kentucky Cavalry Regiment, fought at Shiloh, and then launched a costly raid in Kentucky, which encouraged Braxton Bragg's invasion of that state. He also attacked the supply-lines of General William Rosecrans. In July 1863, he set out on a 1,000-mile raid into Indiana and Ohio, taking hundreds of prisoners. But after most of his men had been intercepted by Union gunboats, Morgan surrendered at Salineville, Ohio, the northernmost point ever reached by uniformed Confederates. The legendary Morgan's Raid, which had been carried out against orders, gained no tactical advantage for the Confederacy, while the loss of his regiment proved a serious setback.
Morgan escaped from his Union prison but his credibility was low, and he was restricted to minor operations. He was killed at Greeneville, Tennessee, in September 1864. Morgan was the brother-in-law of Confederate general A. P. Hill.

A Study in Scarlet by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
A Study in Scarlet is an 1887 detective novel by British author Arthur Conan Doyle. Written in 1886, the story marks the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, who would become among the most famous characters in literature. The book's title derives from a speech given by Holmes, an amateur detective, to his friend and chronicler Watson on the nature of his work, in which he describes the story's murder investigation as his study in scarlet: There's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it.
