How about the Jefferson Memorial or the Lincoln Memorial?

Pull down and re-name all of the billions of other celebrations of White supremacists and White supremacism?

How's all that coming along, heroes?
i normally don't agree with "google expert" but he makes a good point...where do we draw the line?

Should any statue or plaque or monument of any person who owned slaves be taken down as well? Should we no longer celebrate these people?

here in canada names and plaques are being removed of those who had a part in the residential schools that native children were taken from their homes and housed in.

there are all kinds of mistakes in history and future generations will look back at us now and see mistakes too but how far do we need to go try and pretend it never happened?
