making Saturday, July 13, Nathan Bedford Forrest Day in the state.Forrest was a Civil War Confederate General, slave trader and an early KKK leader."How can you be a person of humanity, how and then support that statue, support a day when he was the head of the KKK, how can you do that," said Jim Wohlgemuth, with Veterans for Peace.For two years, Wohlgemuth and Veterans for Peace have been pushing a petition to remove a bust of Forrest from the Tennessee Capitol. "To (declare Forrest Day) again, to honor Nathan Bedford Forrest again with a day is just saying, guess what, if you're a person of color we don't care about you," Wohlgemuth said.Nathan Bedford Forrest Day has been observed in the state for nearly 50 years. The proclamation is causing controversy among some Democrat members of Tennessee House of Representatives."This a reminder of the painful and hurtful of the crimes that were committed against black people," Rep. Vincent Dixie (D-Nashville) said.Dixie says like many others he didn't know July 13 was Nathan Bedford Forrest Day in Tennessee. Dixie says this was the wrong move on the Governor's part."Now you're signing a proclamation honoring the same people that fought to keep people that look like me, African Americans in slavery," Dixie said."Tennessee governors are required by statute to issue a series of proclamations each year, including Nathan Bedford Forrest Day. The proclamation that was issued complies with this obligation and is in keeping with prior years," said Laine Arnold, a spokesperson for Lee.Dixie says it's time to take a more in-depth look at the law."I plan on working with legislators to correct this issue; If the governor is sincere about really being the governor for all Tennesseans and not some Tennesseans then he would get behind me, and do the right thing," Dixie said.The proclamation is not limited to Lee. Tennessee law mandates that the Governor must issue proclamations for six state holidays each yea,r including days for Nathan Bedford Forrest and Robert E. Lee. It has been a state law since 1971.Tennessee Code Annotated 15-2-101. Additional special observance days. 2142

Leif Nelson, who runs the National Veterans Sports Programs for the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs, thinks the controller is about more than just gaming. “It’s allowing veterans to connect with each other and, you know, it’s also allowing folks to be able to connect with their friends and their families,” Nelson said.“Once they get in the groove, it’s really cool to see them getting in the flow,” said Colleen Virzi, who is a recreation therapist at the VA. She works with Brannen and other veterans. Sometimes her job means “training” vets on how to use the controller. “Their disability kind of goes away and they’re able to play just like their peers," Virzi said. “You have the ability to sort of rekindle the camaraderie. There’s trash talking involved, there’s competition involved and these sorts of things are what drive us, we’re finding it’s something that drives our veterans,” Nelson said. The controller gives Brannen an avenue to strengthen his relationship with his son. He hopes they have a lot more gaming to do. 1129
