    This is not erasing history. This is correcting who we honor from history with public statues. Who we honor from history is typically who we honor in the present. The conservators of racism want us to honor the conservators of slavery. No more.https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/virginia-politics/charlottesville-robert-e-lee-statue-removed/2021/07/10/dbf689c4-df4e-11eb-ae31-6b7c5c34f0d6_story.html …

        Reevaluating who we were taught to honor and why we honor them is an important exercise in self-awareness.https://hopethoughts.com/2021/07/09/i-dont-want-to-be-critical-of-your-race-theory-but/ …

        What do the pyramids of Egypt perpetuate? Pyramidiocy? Pseudoscience? That’s no reason to take them down. It’s a dumb analogy.

        These statues were erected to perpetuate the Lost Cause. Racism’s days are numbered.

        Yup removing statues such as this is no more a bad thing than removing gang tags from trains.
