Is it wrong to remove Confederate statues?

Removing these monuments and statues seems like white washing the past to me. There have even been significant calls to tear down the statue of Christopher Columbus in New York because of the way he treated natives. Forgetting your past, no matter how dark it is, is not the way to deal with issues today. What do you think?

I see this is an old topic so apologies if someone pointed this out but Christopher Columbus never stood foot in the US. Why you have a statue, day or anything else dedicated to someone with no connection to your nation is beyond me
