These statues were just erected over this weekend in Alabama. This is to help all of us be reminded about slavery, lynchings, and how oppressive America was.
But wait a minute…
I thought we just went through a liberating revolution of ripping down statues of people that were reminding us of slavery, lynchings, and oppression? One statue of Abraham Lincoln was even burned. The man that actually freed the slaves. This is where we are as a people.
My point is that we should try to be consistent as a culture. The destruction of the statues was never about Robert E. Lee. He was just a justification to try and tear ALL of the real history about America to shreds.
I don’t wish to offend anyone. Slavery is disgusting in any form. Just get people thinking about how we are moving as a society.
