        Do we need statues of Hussein throughout Iraq? Or statues of Hitler throughout Germany? No? Then why statues of traitors?

        If #statues stay up they need clarification, positive and negative. Otherwise put them in #museums, or at least make #textbooks #accurate!

        As capital of Confederacy, Richmond is a 'museum.' Agreed: promote the 'museum' AND tell the whole story.
