Uh, Chris, what do the polls say about removing these statues? Doh!
Enlightened white people of means like you love this sort of thing. It requires virtually nothing of you but by getting behind it, it projects what you want to project to the world. In a million years, you won't move to an all-black neighborhood or send your child to an all-black school or move an impoverished minority family under your roof or even attend an all-black church, but you'll get behind something like this, puff out your puny chest and proudly denounce anyone who doesn't see it your way as lowdown, dirty racists.
Cross mascots and statues off the list. Offensive books just have to be next.
