If you watched the press briefing by Virginia governor Terry McAuliffe and Charlottesville mayor Micheal Signer following the mayhem we all know about now, you may have been wondering who the glowering thug was standing in the background to the right of your screen. Well wonder no more. It was HE who has been pushing for months to remove the statue of Robert E. Lee, and in the past has targeted the home of Thomas Jefferson(Monticello)for removal as well.
Vice-Mayor Wes Bellamy has created deep divisions within the Charlottesville community by taking a largely administrative position and turning it into a bully pulpit to attack white culture and history. Wes Bellamy recently targeted Lee Park, demanding that a historical Robert E. Lee statue be removed, despite a price tag of over $700,000 dollars to taxpayers. But it’s all about his deep seated resentments. Bellamy doesn’t care about massively overspending to get his way.
Charlottesville is a very liberal city in Central Virginia which voted overwhelmingly for President Obama twice and no doubt took a lot of pride in voting for Wes Bellamy on race alone. They thought they would simply pat themselves on the back about how tolerant and diverse they were. In the process they demanded no vetting from the media for a man who is essentially a carpetbagger from Atlanta with a criminal history of assaulting police officers and a blatant black supremacist.
Of course there have been many concerned voices about Wes Bellamy’s plan to attack white history by removing the Robert E. Lee statue but the community and media seem to have written his critics off as cranks and fringe Confederate history buffs. Meanwhile he reportedly stacks all of his committees with all or majority black appointees, attends 100 Black Man racist anti-white conferences, and uses his power to harass local business owners who criticize Black Lives Matter.
