A North Carolina town watched live online as a bulldozer pushed down its Confederate monument.
Mondale Robinson, the mayor of Enfield, North Carolina, took to Facebook to share a livestream as a Confederate monument in the town’s Randolph Park was demolished by a bulldozer on Sunday, Aug. 21.
“Yes, sirs! Death to the Confederacy around here,” Robinson said in the video as a bulldozer knocked the monument over. “Not in my town. Not on my watch.”
Enfield, North Carolina, is a town of about 2,300 situated about 70 miles northeast of Raleigh. The town’s board of commissioners voted 4-1 to remove the statue at an Aug. 15 meeting, according to The Daily Herald.
