Gov. Reeves Declares Confederate Heritage Month

Updated: Aug 6, 2024



Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves has declared April as Confederate Heritage Month. This practice follows that of several of his Democratic and Republican predecessors, but it has drawn criticism from the state’s only African American congressman, Democratic U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson1.


The proclamation does not mention slavery as the central issue in the Civil War; instead, it emphasizes reflecting on our nation’s past and learning from both mistakes and successes.
