The history of statues is that they get brought down and turned into other statues. They are public decoration not history.

You get your history from statues? Maybe consider reading a book instead.

With a thread title like "Problematic' Roosevelt statue at American Museum of Natural History finds new home", I thought it was going be about its new home and show it in the new setting. Nope. Just about it being taken down and put in storage in preparation for a presidential library that isn't even built yet.
The man is ranked as one of the 5 best presidents in our history, and the metropolitan hillbillies that forced the statue out of it's home since 1940 should be ashamed of themselves. It is Orwellian bullsh#t, but an example of his quote “Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.”
