Writing clarifies thinking. This is probably not what @JAH5198 had in mind when he responded to a recent essay, but I appreciate his input.
For many it is not that history is being erased but that their ancestors are being disparaged

“…all we ask is to be let alone…”
What is more American than that. Leave all the statues, memorials, and monuments alone. We welcome all statues, monuments, and memorials even if they honor Americans we don’t admire.

This is the first of a few essays to get clarity on why saving memorials and statues is important. The iconoclasts are good at messaging, and we need to counter it.

Selling NFTs to make money to support social justice causes. Says he made history taking the statues down. Mayor says they have to wait for the grass to grow to know what to do next with the spaces.

An inscription on Karl Marx's tomb reads:
“The philosophers have only interpreted the world. The point however is to change it.”
The people who would change the world are winning and those elected to positions to resist are cowards.

If Kevin Levin's grapevine is reliable, the biggest cancelation tragedy is still to come.

The American South was NOT uniquely evil or racist in the 19th century. Believing it was, facilitates the destruction of important notions regarding free government like sovereignty, federalism, and protection of minority rights.

In his book War on the West, @DouglasKMurray points out the hypocrisy of the left for not giving Karl Marx the same treatment as Thomas Jefferson. It appears Marx was just plain mean too.

"One statue on Cotton Avenue, erected in a different location in the 1870s, represents an anonymous Confederate soldier."
The statue was removed on Wednesday. Macon was a much safer place on Thursday.

Robert E. Lee Elementary school in Washington State is still resisting. Can't say the same for 100 schools in Southern states.
East Wenatchee is on the Eastern side of the Cascades, where emotions don't rule the day.

Memorializing their lost sons and independence in 1867. NC did not secede and join the Confederacy until there was Northern aggression. Hyperbolic? Read some history.

J. F. Harris was a slave and a remarkable American, exemplifying thinking for oneself and honor. As a black Mississippi legislator in 1890, he voted to erect a monument to honor dead Confederates. Now many would like to tear it down.

Change the names already! Why so divisive? Do most Americans feel like General Milley and Representative Brown?

Are there any Booker T. Washington statues?
Washington is treated unfairly in Searching for Black Confederates. Levin maligns Washington because some people who support the "Lost Cause" use his perspective as evidence to support their case.

Leave all the statues alone and I will not make fun of journalists and newspapers approaching history like it is breaking news.

@StephenPunwasi What about this one? It could disappear into a protest pie at any moment! #SaveTheStatues
@mitchellreports They were not considered “confederate statues”. I think the other other trees on the premises, need that designation before it’s too late. #SaveTheStatues
