Ku Klux Klan plaque mounted at the entrance of West Point's science center, congressional commission finds
In a report released this month, the Naming Commission, which is reviewing Department of Defense assets in an effort to identify and remove confederate commemorations, included a photo of the bronze plaque. The words "KU KLUX KLAN" are underneath a depiction of a person in a hood, holding a rifle.
The plaque is part of a triptych at the entrance to Bartlett Hall, West Point's science center, according to the Naming Commission.
The panel said it doesn't have the authority to recommend removal of the plaque because it is not specifically a confederate monument.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
