Hurricane Laura Topples Confederate Statue In Louisiana

The video discusses the 105-year-old Confederate monument, the South Defenders Monument, which was knocked off its pedestal by a category four storm with winds of 150 mph. Despite protests, city leaders had voted to keep the statue earlier in the month. The storm left the statue dented and bent.
