One day after crews removed the remnants of a Confederate statue as authorized by the UNC chancellor, a UNC Board of Governors member is calling the move illegal and reiterating his position that the statue be reinstated.

like the statue or hate the statue, my suggestion is, let’s

talking point to talk about history.”
The Confederate statue known as Silent Sam was pulled off its pedestal by protesters in August.
