This is why the laissez faire attitude of "who cares, there just statues" is dangerous
Next it is every statue of a white person regardless of history. Then every street named after a white person. Then every position of power held by a white person.......

Enjoy being Detroit

The letter on their website sounds like it was written by an 11 year old.

Takeemdownnola had nothing to do with bringing the statues down. They got behind the cause that Mitch started.

NOLA is a shithole. Anyone who disagrees is drunk or trash

I am so glad I don't live in NO.

But then, as a white guy I am none too welcome there. Getting that way in BR, too.

Maybe someone can help me out here, but I don't recall reading, hearing, or seeing any protests of these statues on the news or my previous times in New Orleans. In fact, I can remember Robert E. Lee at Lee Circle was a meeting point for friends of ours in Mardi Gras.

Is this something recent or has there been a movement in opposition of the statues for some time now?

I have seen the requested list of what they want down in the future. I am not lying when I say it is everything named after a white person. De Gaulle and Joan of arc were on the list


If the city goes ahead and listens and starts phase 2, I honestly have no clue why any white Larson would live in Nola. The city would be actively saying it isn't for white people

Good luck with that. I think it's federally protected and he's an ex President. If they want to die on that particular hill, more power to them.
