Title:Study: More than 100 Confederate monuments removed since 2015

The report, released Monday, notes that the June 2015 mass shooting at a black church in Charleston, S.C., that left nine dead sparked a nationwide effort to remove such monuments.

这份星期一发布的报告指出，2015年6月在查理顿一家黑人教堂发生的大规模枪击事件引起了全国范围的努力，消除了纪念碑。

The effort has resulted in Confederate monuments being removed at a rate of three each month. The monuments range from places including schools, roads, parks and other places in the public square.

联邦纪念碑的拆除速度为每个月3个，包括学校、道路、公园和其他公共广场上的名胜古迹等不同地区。

The report notes that despite these efforts, there are still more than 1,700 Confederate monuments standing in the U.S.

该报告指出，尽管努力拆除，但美国目前仍有超过1,700座联邦纪念碑。

The 110 monuments being removed represents progress for Heidi Beirich of the Southern Poverty Law Center, who told The Associated Press that "it kind of signifies something monumental."

"I think people are finally willing to confront the history and come to terms with it," she added. 

她说：“我认为人们终于愿意面对历史，并愿意接受历史。

The SPLC conducted this report by using news accounts, tips and crowdsourcing sites that let people make online reports. While the organization lists 1,728 Confederate monuments still standing today, Beirich told the AP that is likely there are more than that.
