The North ended slavery for all time, at the expense of a great many American lives.The better question is why do you want to remove them?The better question is why do you want to remove them?
Because the idea of honoring those men and what they fought to preserve is repugnant.
Imagine, if you can or will, that you are an African American. Imagine having to live in a community that chooses to honor these men. You're forced to walk past and through these parks in honor of men who fought to keep your kind enslaved. It's despicable that in 2017 American citizens are made to suffer such a public humility. These memorials only came to be in response to desegregation across the south. They were erected to let blacks know who was still in charge.
Why do you believe they should stay?
Than you best get busy tearing down the White House and every single monument in the country.
No one but you has suggested anything so ridiculous.
Why the hell not?
The North had plenty of slaves.
The White House has protected civil rights many many times.
The Confederacy doesn't have a single redeeming quality. It existed solely to preserve slavery.
The south no longer supports slavery anymore than the north does.
Using your logic the white house needs to be torn down.
