We the undersigned call on the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC) (hqudc.org) to voluntarily remove their confederate statue from the square of Tuskegee, Alabama. 

This confederate statue does not represent our community, which is 96% African American. Furthermore, we feel that a more appropriate place for it would be in a museum.

Due to the violence in Charlottesville, coupled with the removal of several of these monuments from around the country, we the undersigned request that the UDC follow suit and immediately remove the one from our historical city.
