Please add to this list, the sillier the better. A reminder that we can overcome terrible things, we can build things that last in good ways.

The ACLU, the NAACP, Southern Equality, and most of our nation’s abortion funds have all been around longer.

Shameless plug: my company Seed&Spark has been around for 13 years during which time pretty much every single one of the 5,890 movies we’ve helped get made would make confederates roll in their graves. I delight in that a lot.

The original Pride flag launched in 1978 and has been going strong ever since, outlast the confederacy by almost 35 years.

Pokémon Go has been around for nine years. It’s kind of a scam to build a new mapping app using the UGC from people’s pictures but that outlasted the Confederacy.

A Different World, an American sitcom about an HBCU (a *great* show that is currently being rebooted and they better not mess it up) lasted 6 seasons starting in 1987
