I’m a Black descendant of enslaved Africans. I don’t need statues of Confederate traitors to remember the atrocities they committed against my ancestors. What a stupid argument.

Absolutely. It’s like saying Germany needs statues of Goebbels and Goering to remember the Nazis (who now, thanks to laws banning their symbolism, have happily appropriated…the confederate flag).
