FILE - In this Nov. 4, 2011 file photo, Sean Bordelon, left, and Raphiel Heard, of Shreveport, pause after reading the inscription on the Confederate soldier's monument in front of the Caddo Parish Courthouse in Shreveport, La. Local officials have voted to remove the Confederate monument from the courthouse grounds in the northwest Louisiana parish. The Caddo Parish Commission voted 7-5 for the measure on Thursday, Oct. 19, 2017, after hearing nearly two hours of opinions about the monument erected 111 years ago in a parish once called "Bloody Caddo" because so many African-Americans were killed during Reconstruction.
