Going out to all my social justice warrior friends...you cannot eradicate history by taking down monuments ... each one of us in our geneology has one time an ancestor who pummeled and oppressed a part of the world French ,English, Spaniards and that even includes Shaka from the Zulu nation...not one of us is without this in our geneology ...The Romans still have the colosseum, The Egyptians their pyramids, The Aztecs their stone idols, The Great Wall in China, and even the Catholic church still has the Vatican... it is not the symbol that makes us do bad to people it's in ignorance and that ignorance is in your mind, the symbol is your interpretation of what's in you that needs to be healed and healed in others but hiding the symbol does not educate the future or even allow dialogue and communication about it ...for if you think you should take down every symbol of oppression in the US of A because of your selective view point why not ask a Native American which symbol you should take down first?...Stop being selectively bias...your being hypocrites.
