This Wednesday, Aug. 16, 2017 photo shows a statue in Garfield Park that commemorates Confederate soldiers who died in Indiana POW camps. The 35-foot granite tower was moved to Garfield Park in 1928 from its original site marking the mass grave of those who died while held at Camp Morton. While there are no statues, it does have plaques listing the names of 1,616 prisoners. City-County Council President Maggie Lewis said while the monument may be less offensive than others, its location merits a conversation. (Robert Scheer /The Indianapolis Star via AP)
