That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for September 27, 2018

“150 years from now, Americans will proudly tear down a traitorous statue of you.”

“Tell me again which of us is on the wrong side of history?”

Yes, I’ve signed the house deed over to the dogs. Sit! Stay!

“Will you be taking the slaves with you?”

Slave: Break a leg; no really.

Don’t worry son, the army will make a man out of you. You’ll even learn how to grow a pointy beard.

Seated woman: “Dear god, where did the boy buy those trousers”

I wonder what the guy outside has done to the saddle on the horse.

Really good one, Melcher.

And if you meet Col. Angus, tell him your Mother says hello!

" I think y’all will be a great hairstylist for the Confederacy, Llewellyn. But if it don’t pan out, son, then find you a rich Yankee. "

Get captured quick – and protect your million dollar hands!

“No, son. We’re sellin’ the horse. You’re gonna hafta ride the dog bareback.”

If we loose this war, you’ll have to pick the cotton.

Even now they believe they were right. Only now no more black slaves, they want white ones while blacks get their own nation-state.

To the Brits we are all Yankees and still are.

The painting now lives at the Birmingham Museum of Art, which has a page about it at https://artsbma.org/collection/leaving-home/ on their website.
