You’re calling for harmony as long as African Americans accept insult and injury. And when was the last time you asked a black woman who was a mother about this?
All 1,000 would not laugh, the vast majority would support removing these symbols because they understand the impact it has on kids.
Could you imagine being a Jew and walking passed a statue of Rommel, or going to a school with the family crest of an officer at Auscwitz?
I don’t think you understand the way these statues and vestiges are regarded among black people. Then you want to talk about harmony. There will be no harmony with this stuff around. It must be brought down for the sake of a more perfect union. These things are what divides and the cause of the division.
