Although the Confederate States of America dissolved at the end of the American Civil War (1861–1865), its battle flag continues to be displayed as a symbol.

Further display of the flag was a response to the civil rights movement and the passage of federal civil rights laws in the 1950s and 1960s.

<i>Nathan Bedford Forrest Statue</i> Statue of Confederate General and Ku Klux Klan leader Nathan Bedford Forrest

The Nathan Bedford Forrest Statue is a 25 feet (7.6 m) equestrian statue of Confederate Lt. General Nathan Bedford Forrest. Now removed, the statue was formerly located on a narrow strip of private land in front of multiple Confederate and Southern state flags near Nashville, Tennessee, the capital city of Tennessee, and was visible from Interstate 65 at 701D Hogan Road. The work, by attorney and amateur sculptor Jack Kershaw, was unveiled in 1998. Widely mocked by national media, it drew decades of controversy and vandalism, and was removed on December 7, 2021. Critics said the work's distorted facial features bore little resemblance to Forrest himself. Forrest was depicted with a sword held high in his right hand, while mounted on a rearing horse flanked by Confederate battle flags.
