        Statues teach us about history - right or wrong. Removing statues would be an error.

        How about saying "for and against the removal of..."? We need to stop fostering division.

        History demands memorials for victims, not hate symbols and statues commemorating war criminals. We wouldn't make a statue of a terrorist.

        If the statues were so terrible, and their immediate removal so important - WHY didn't OBAMA do it during his 8 years in office?pic.twitter.com/vPcsTWPzl0
