A recent article in our local paper had the Daughters of the Confederacy extolling the virtues of their organization -- which is in no way racist, of course. They discussed how the Northeners had shaped history in regards to the Civil War, etc., all the usual lines used by such groups. They presented Confederate battle flags to African-American women who had ancestors who fought for the South, and invited the women to apply for membership. I'm sure they're rushing to do so.
