Excellent article. Birmingham, Alabama is the Deep South where pride in their Confederate heritage is strong. I am awestruck that the Hilton heeded your request. Good for you in striking a blow against the apathy that is often found in the South regarding the horrible tradition of pride in their Civil War history. The Confederacy was founded for one purpose only, the preservation of the institution of slavery. One need only read the Constitution of the Confederate States to know that fact. Again, praise to your Mr. Mustikhan for making a change for the better at the Birmingham, Alabama Hilton.

The Civil Rights Movement is an on going struggle. We must all renew our commitment to equality in the U.S. Those still fighting this fight in Alabama are to be commended.
