Description An account of the resource The statue features two generic Union and Confederate soldiers standing back-to-back with a crouching enslaved child underneath them. This child is holding a pamphlet granting emancipation. The Union soldier holds a United States flag while the Confederate soldier holds a Confederate flag. The Confederate soldier’s body is cracked, and nose is chipped. The statue is maintained by the township and paid for by taxpayer money. It was one of eight statues erected in celebration of Allendale townships' 150th birthday in 1998, located in the Veteran’s Garden of Honor. Recently, the monument has received much controversy since 2020 and the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement.
