After years of protests, Tennessee officials on Friday removed a bust honoring Confederate general, slave trader and early Ku Klux Klan leader Nathan Bedford Forrest from its perch at the state Capitol.
The bust was placed in its position outside the doors to the state House and Senate in 1978.
It took several state boards and commissions to remove the Forrest statue, urged on by Gov. Bill Lee, who initially opposed removal.
House Speaker Cameron Sexton and Senate Speaker Randy McNally â like Lee, both Republicans â forcefully opposed removal, and were the lone votes against

Confederate bust to be removed from Tennessee Capitol
By KIMBERLEE KRUESIJuly 22, 2021 GMT
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) A decadeslong effort to remove a bust of a Confederate general and early Ku Klux Klan leader from the Tennessee Capitol cleared its final hurdle Thursday, with state leaders approving the final vote needed to allow the statue to be relocated to a museum.
The seven-member State Building Commission voted 5-2 to remove the Nathan Bedford Forrest bust as well as the busts of two other Tennessee military leaders.
The Forrest bust was first installed at the Capitol in 1978 and has sparked protests and demonstrations ever since. Some have called for adding more historical context to the bust, but others, including Gov. Bill Lee recently, fought to have it moved to the state’s history museum.
