    Preserving history doesn't require us glorifying the villain.

        Yeah, there is more to history than racists vs non racists. Lots of good non slave owning americans lived in the CSA.

        People have been trying to get rid of these statues, etc for as far back as I can remember. It's just currently getting traction.

        Especially with statues that were put up decades after the civil war. To remind everyone of the oppression and to try to continue oppressing
