        This is true, but also as a very active parent, history that was once taught is no longer being taught in schools. Out of sight, out of mind

        Destroy them. We didn't play nice with the Saddam statue in Baghdad. Tear down these symbols of hate with a strong message. Use dynamite.

        Put them in some sort of anti-slavery museum, similar to how some concentration camps are preserved so we never forget

        Put up a Gen Sherman monument in its place and tell them it's to remind them of our history and see how they react.

        We must remove all vestiges of our history so that we will learn nothing and repeat it on a grander scale.

        They are part of our history but the symbol divides us. White males fly the confederate flag on the back their pick up trucks every day. ☹️
