Friends & Compatriots:

The new administration in Washington is rejecting the Woke ideology. This provides us an opportunity to launch a counterattack against the Woke ideologues who attacked our Southern Heritage. If we act decisively, we can restore Military Base names, once again allow Southern National Guard Units to display unit battle honors won during the “Civil War,” and restore the Arlington Reconciliation Monument.

Your assistance is needed to push this effort forward. Below is a link to the SCV’s One Click Politics system.

This system allows you to inform your U.S. Senators and Congressmen about the necessity of correcting the anti-American Woke agenda.

Thank you for your willingness to help vindicate the Cause.

Deo Vindice,
Walter Donald Kennedy
Commander-in-Chief, SCV 2024-26

"To you, Sons of Confederate Veterans, we will commit the vindication of the cause for which we fought. To your strength will be given the defense of the Confederate soldier's good name, the guardianship of his history, the emulation of his virtues, the perpetuation of those principles which he loved and which you love also, and those ideals which made him glorious and which you also cherish." -Lt. Gen. Stephen Dill Lee, Commander General, United Confederate Veterans, Apr. 15, 1906
