Does it matter when a society’s long-present statues are torn down and replaced with very different ones? Well, consider an analogy. Imagine that upon coming home each day, you noticed that more and more pictures of your family members, which had adorned your walls, mantels, and desktops, were disappearing and were being replaced with those of people you don’t even recognize.
Would it matter?
Well, this is essentially what has been happening with our national family. For many years now, statues have been continually torn down/removed, replaced with people of little accomplishment and/or poor character. One of late cocaine-using Washington, D.C., Mayor Marion Barry, erected in his city in 2018, is an example. Even further down the rabbit hole of risibility, statues and other monuments honoring criminal George Floyd appeared in 2020-2021.
She’s not anybody.
