You have Nazi Concentration camps. They give tours and everything/ You didn't knnow this?
Auschwitz
Holocaust Tour Sachsenhausen Tour
And there are a lot of others. I'm surprised you didn't know that.
Auschwitz is a "monument to great Nazi leaders" as I said in my post? I'm almost 100% sure if there were a museum in New Orleans that was set up to display evidence of Confederate atrocities and to the poor treatment of slaves that there wouldn't be a push from anyone to have it shut down.

It's all in the way you choose to interpret them. Just having a statue of a Confederate General and you choose to say it is to honor the Civil War and disobedience. Couldn't someone see the Concentration Camps and jump to the conclusion that they support the atrocities?
We all see the Concentration camps for what they are because of the POV we take. Same for the statues Robert E. Lee...it's all in the POV you choose to take. I think of Lee as a man of character. My personal favorite, though was Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson.
Just because there is a statue to them doesn't mean people are happy with slavery. I think everybody agrees that it was a horrible chapter in our country's history.
