You want to get rid of statues. What next ? any books or anything relevant written by those people too ?

Not the same. Statues are in people's faces, working subconsciously to make one group feel superior and the other inferior. Can't avoid them.So it feeds racism which is something that must die.

If you were beaten as a child, last thing you need is a daily reminder.

South needs to heal. Grow up. Move on.

@revenant america is not a white country... I mean not really because it the indigenous race are the native Americans and everyone else are immigrants who left their countries in search of opportunity to make a better life for them and their families.

@fairefoutre if no one pays attention to them people should not mind them being removed if they cause offence to others. If it was just art replace them with unknown figures for the purpose to let people know you value inclusivity.



@revenant a settler is someone who moves to uninhabited land to build their lives.....but much of the land was stolen from the native americans was it not?
Brilliant. @BabyLonia
Do you know where you are and why? @fairefoutre

@BabyLonia Much of history has been like that across the globe 🙂 Humans have never been choirboys. Wonder why people want to live in the US rather than other parts of the world.

@revenant obviously for the opportunity to make one's fortune.

@revenant So the fact that people still want to emigrate her means we’re in no need of improvement?

@LeopoldBloom you expect third world folks'help to improve ?
BabyLonia · F
@revenant of they have access to the same education rather of course.
revenant · F
@BabyLonia do not they bring other values with themselves ? regardless of the educational level ?
BabyLonia · F
@revenant so you only think it was acceptable for people from 3rd world countries to come over when being brought as slaves?

They can bring other values, of course they can, but it is not necessary what the bring, it is necessary what they are willing to contribute.

@BabyLonia I have never met any slaves. Furthermore I am talking about 2020 not the 18th century.
