I’m honestly thinking it may be time to seriously consider dissolution of the Union.

Thousands of societies and civilizations, some we'll never even know about beg to differ. Its like all these people think history is some subjective truth

New political parties move in and remove the imagery of the old.

Usually as platitudes with absolutely no substance. All of this represents no meaningful change. It does nothing to improve the condition of anyone. It is all pandering bullshite that is meant to appease a vocal minority that is going to continue to pitch a hissy fit until they get their way.

Let's see if this same bunch will hold the politician's feet to the flames and demand substantive change, or become complacent with platitudes of kind will. Do they even care? Do they even know? Do they even realize that the very people they elect have brought about the problems they are currently fighting against?

Every establishment has said this about every minority ever. We'll see but your belief that they aren't substitute isn't some new thought throughout history.

With that being said, every woman in this nation should consider taking deep umbrage with any depictions of the philanderer and condoner of rape that was Dr. King.
Only gone 42 years! Harder to erase. Opposition too strong and still alive. Maybe in 2069 he can test that Teddy 101 year threshold. Or perhaps the assassinated get an even longer run. Any statues of Archduke Franz Ferdinand we can try to take down to test the limit?

Apparently Teddy's great-grandson, Theodore Roosevelt IV, sits on the museums board of trustees and endorsed this decision.

I wish they'd just replace the statue with one of just Roosevelt.
