From KBMT Channel 12 (Beaumont), August 20, 2018:
ORANGE — Construction crews appear to have returned to the Confederate Memorial of the Wind Monument along Interstate 10 in Orange. It looks like work is underway on a new walkway.
Since the memorial was constructed in 2013, it’s proven controversial.
The Sons of Confederate Veterans is the group behind the memorial, which is built on private land. A woman from Orange saw crews there this weekend and contacted 12News. She says the memorial is offensive. We agreed to protect her identity because she fears for her safety. “We don’t need that memorial in our town. and I believe it encourages racism,” she said Monday.
Please note: Due to a forecast of rain, we have changed the date for this weekend’s protest to Sunday, April 8.
