Arlington belonged to Robert E. Lee. Sometime After the CW the sons of Lee and Grant made an agreement to keep the Lands of Arlington as a burial ground for the CW dead, including a few Confederates. The Arlington Mansion was dedicated to Lee's memory. The monument in question was the "National Reconciliation Monument."

Due to an Ignorance of history and the recent democRat Eradications of statues, monuments, and graves of Confederates much American history has been erased. Similar to what the Afghan Taliban did to Buddhist Statues in Afghanistan. Same Mentality.

It was not necessary to demolish Southern Confederate heritage. A truly "Inclusive" society would have just Added monuments and statues for Black heritage North & South.
