Confederate monuments and memorials in the United States include public displays and symbols of the Confederate States of America (CSA), Confederate leaders, or Confederate soldiers of the American Civil War. Many monuments and memorials have been or will be removed under great controversy. Part of the commemoration of the American Civil War, these symbols include monuments and statues, flags, holidays and other observances, and the names of schools, roads, parks, bridges, buildings, counties, cities, lakes, dams, military bases, and other public structures. In a December 2018 special report, Smithsonian Magazine stated, "over the past ten years, taxpayers have directed at least $40 million to Confederate monuments—statues, homes, parks, museums, libraries, and cemeteries—and to Confederate heritage organizations."

<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 near Nashville, 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.
