The monuments and memorials have become increasingly controversial due to differing interpretations of their meaning and importance. Historians have found that Confederate monuments were not built primarily as historical markers, but were instead intended to glorify, sanitize, and commemorate the Confederacy.[11][1][12][13]

Most Confederate monuments were built in periods of racial conflict, such as when Jim Crow laws were being introduced in the late 19th century and the start of the 20th century or during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s. 
[14][15][16][17] New Confederate monuments continued to be proposed in recent years, and some have been built.[18][19][20][21]
