The taliban has nothing to do with this. So why don't you follow your own rules and stop derailing a thread that's honoring a true American patriot, Mary McLeod Bethune.
Check the record here. I dropped in to COMMENT on Mary Bethune. I did so twice. And just couldn't pass up YOUR statements that "the Confederacy is not American history". Starting at post #7 -- a LONG time before I dropped in.
I might be one of very few that DID comment on Bethune Cookman college. And since the title INCLUDES "Confederate General in the US Capitol" -- it's probably within scope. Up to YOU to tell us WHY Mary Bethune's legacy of education of generations of black students, is not MUCH BETTER than a stinky ole statue.
As for George Floyd and his monuments -- AGAIN -- dying as a martyr might deserve a statue or 2. But Mary Bethune left a much more influential legacy.
