Is that your excuse for not ever having read a book? Pretty lame.
A good number of statues and monuments and plaques etc have already been removed --- as in the three mentioned in my (second) video from New Orleans.
The first monument that city removed was actually removed twice ---- for most of its life the commemoration of the White League shooting its way into control of the city was marked by a prominent 35-foot-tall obelisk at the foot of Canal Street, the main thoroughfare of the city and the widest city street in the U.S. The insurrection was 1874 and the obelisk went up in 1891, and stood there for generations on the city's busiest street. An informational plaque was added in 1932 to make clear that the monument celebrated the triumph of white supremacy.
Another mayor in the 1970s, the father of the mayor in my video, appended a disclaimer sign near it which read, "Although the ‘Battle of Liberty Place’ and this monument are important parts of New Orleans history, the sentiments in favor of white supremacy expressed thereon are contrary to the philosophy and beliefs of present-day New Orleans.” After it was temporarily moved for construction on Canal Street, David Duke came along and sued the city to put it back up. It did but moved it to a less obvious location and finally voted to remove it altogether only a year ago, Mayor Landrieu commenting "we will no longer allow the Confederacy to literally be put on a pedestal in the heart of our city." -- literally 152 years after the Confederacy surrendered. It sits today in a warehouse.
It must be comforting for the OP of this thread to know David Duke's behind him. Nothing like running with "very fine people".
I was being figurative. It’s democrats who remove names and landmarks of history by applying today’s standards. That is book-burning.
Of course it isn't, what an absurd thing to say. And I am sure Germany has few statues of Hitler....boy that must really upset you! Or maybe you're just trying to eke out an overwrought point where there isn't one....
Yet another monument to racism

Correct.
Let negro's do as they please and the negro "family" now exists as no father present,crime is rampant,out of wedlock children are common place,drugs are common place,schools are jungles,once nice cities are war zones....great ideas to let them do things on their own. The negro race is not smart enough to handle its own affairs. They belong in zoos in Africa.Yet another monument to racism

These monuments were erected to ensure negroes knew their place

It’s abject censorship.
It is abject censorship. You endorse it like a good 1930’s nazi.
It is not censorship. What an absurd thing to say.
It is censorship. Pure censorship, censoring history for nefarious reasons. And you’re a dupe.
They will tear it down in the dead of night, with masks on of course, and once they are done burning California to the ground, they will set the college on fire to punish them.
Of course, it meets no definition censorship. In fact, it is precisely the opposite, as it is a decision by the government not to endorse the display of genocidal traitors.
