In Orlando, Florida a statue of a Confederate solider, titled “Johnny Reb” was removed from it’s home in an Orlando park to be replaced in a cemetery where several Confederate graves live. Upon removal an old time capsule was discovered containing several artifacts. The monument was moved from the public park after the public cry out against the statue as being racially insensitive and as a symbol of white supremacy. The items found in the time capsule included money, the minutes of a meeting from the organization, Daughters of the Confederacy, and newspaper.
