Debate over moving Confederate monument continues in Brandon
SUMMARY: A 37-foot-tall Confederate monument has stood in downtown Brandon, Mississippi, since 1907, erected by the Brandon chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy. At a recent public hearing, five residents voiced sharply differing views before Mayor Butch Lee and the Brandon Board of Aldermen. Some see the statue as a painful symbol of racial oppression that should be removed to a cemetery or museum, while others view it as an honor to Confederate soldiers’ service and sacrifice. No decision was made, and the board will continue the debate at a future meeting.

How to make a homemade strawberry milkshake
SUMMARY: Registered dietitian Rebecca Turner from the Dairy Alliance demonstrated how to make a simple homemade strawberry milkshake using strawberry ice cream and milk. The Dairy Alliance, a nonprofit supporting Mississippi’s 48 dairy farms, promotes dairy as part of a healthy diet providing calcium, vitamin D, and protein. Turner highlighted lactose-free ice cream and milk options made from real cow’s milk but with lactose removed for those sensitive to it.
