| Info | Leonard "Flagpole" Wilson, esq. from Townley, Alabama serving as the National Director of the Council for Conservative Citizens and as Parliamentarian for the Sons of Confederate Veterans.
In a recent shake-up surrounding the Sons of Confederate Veterans, the Southern Poverty Law Center had this to say about "Flagpole:"
"Leonard "Flagpole" Wilson, a national director of the Council of Conservative Citizens, who became staff parliamentarian. Wilson earned his nickname by shouting from atop a flagpole during the violent 1956 demonstrations he helped lead against the admission of the first black student at the University of Alabama."
