Imagine having to look up at a face that was responsible for so much death, despair, and anguish for your people. These statues serve as a monument of a past no one no longer wishes to see. Sure, we can still learn from it, but we don’t need monuments dedicated to cruelty.

The statue of Robert Dundas is seen in Edinburgh, Scotland after it had been graffitied with 'son of slavery' and 'colonialist profiteer'. Activists have renewed calls to remove statues that honour historical figures with links to the slave trade.
