Are you in favor of having a Confederate History month?

I ask this due to the recent statements of the Virginia Governor. I did not even realize there was such a thing as Confederate History Month. I find it kind of odd myself. Confederacy brings to my mind slavery and secession. Having a month implies support. If you support the confederacy it flies in the face of UNITED States in my mind. Being united made us strong. Not to mention the obvious fact that the confederacy wanted to continue slavery.

I thought maybe some people in the collective could explain to me why it is a good idea to have this month. Maybe a better alternative would be a southern history month, or even better in my mind a month set aside where the states discuss their history and claims to fame. Like the month of June for each state to honor what is great about the state: Virginia history month in Virginia, Colorado history month in Colorado, etc.
