It is a tough time for some people because statues are being removed out of fear. There are many confederate statues that mean a lot to many people. There are many differences of opinion among people and when it interferes with other people and the things they create to remember their history, then it will create conflict.
Key Takeaways:
- Today we are at an unprecedented time in history, or is it a time when we are destroying history?
- Cities allowed with pride to have these erected as remembrances of sacrifices of our everyday citizens who fought and died for their beliefs.
- Are we creating a new history for the future to see, or one that will be destroyed because of the beliefs of others?
“As we begin to take away the remembrances of past history and erect new ones, are we recognizing their accomplishments and beliefs at the cost of destroying others.”
