I remember when Trump said they would eventually come after Washington and Jefferson monuments, but I never dreamed they would come after Lincoln...
I heard Birmingham AL had some Confederate statues toppled.
I have been of the belief that until the South could reach an agreement about how to deal with Confederacy-related statues on public property (either choosing to remove of move into museum) or even Confederacy symbols on state flags that the ghosts of the past would remain and tensions would never heal.
Lincoln wanted so badly to oversee a well laid-out reconciliation process between North and South..but alas, he was assassinated before he could implement his vision. Southern Reconstruction ended up being somewhat of a disaster. And the country has yet to recover.
I wonder if they did anything to the huge new MLK monument
“The issue is never the issue. The issue is only The Revolution.”
I would say they went after Lincoln because he was a Republican; but from what Ive seen on TV they have no idea.
