You joke, but in 1920s Southern whites wanted to put up a statue to "Mame" -- tribute to slave & servant women who raised their kids.

If Confederate statues are “history” because of defeated Confederate officers why don’t we have statues of Hitler all over the US?

Or Ho Chi Minh. Or Castro. Or George III. Or any other enemy of the United States.

We didn't defeat Ho Chi Minh or Fidel Castro though

True, but the point is that they, like Jeff Davis and Robert E Lee, were enemies of the US who therefore shouldn't have monuments in the US.
