Rep. Steve Cohen, a Memphis Democrat filing articles of impeachment against President Trump, Monday said Mayor Jim Strickland is right to insist on removing Confederate monuments legally — but he could do more. In this special episode of 125 North Main, Cohen also explains why he voted as a member of the Center City Commission in 1995 against removing the statue and grave of Confederate Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest from Health Science Park in Downtown Memphis.
