Oh no let’s complain about the statues while people are being murdered. Let have a moment of silence for racist statues.https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1274353567223160832 …

I’m really just wondering, if there were statues of someone who murdered your grandparents for being white would you guys not an issue with it? Sure it’s history but is upholding that more important, if they tell nothing of the actual occurrence?

Should statues of Stalin be torn down? I mean, he’s viewed as one of the greatest tyrants of the last 100 years but the Soviets sacrificed over 20M people to push back against the Nazis

Stalin saved a lot of people. Robert E Lee did not. There are nuances to this and a history that’s far more complex in Russia than ours.

The argument I hear from other Virginians is, "these are works of art". (White person said this) If they are "works of art" put them in a Civil War museum.

That’s fine but let’s also acknowledge that Lincoln didn’t particularly care about slaves yet he’s held up as one of the biggest heroes in American history

Agreed on Lincoln. Not everyone holds him in high regard anymore though
