What is the purpose of a statue?

To remind us. But unfortunately we tend to let the statue tell the story and over time the story is forgotten.

It is important that WE tell the story. I have many family stories but there are no statutes or physical reminders.

Folks, the problem is we don't’ know the stories behind the statutes. We can't tell what we don't know. Heritage is passed through generations by stories, not the statue.

Folks, this is an opportunity for us to tell the stories.

This. PRECISELY this. Well stated, and don’t be surprised to see it as a meme.
