Should the Monuments be Removed?

Some people feel that Confederate monuments need to be removed, while others feel that the monuments need to stay. There is a national debate on what to do about Confederate monuments around the country. Some feel it is a good idea to get rid of them because the statues represent racism.

Key Takeaways:

  • many cities, such as 25 so far, have began removing confederate monuments in regard to the white nationalist rally.
  • In my opinion, I believe that the confederate monuments should not be removed. I believe this because I feel as if the monuments represent history.
  • The monuments being removed has not changed anything for our country, therefore taking them down is basically pointless and keeps everything unresolved.

“Since the Charlottesville rally dispute over the Robert E. Lee stature, many cities, such as 25 so far, have began removing confederate monuments in regard to the white nationalist rally.”
