Does "acknowledging both" mean tearing down statues?

How is it truly trying to be balanced *if* one one hand, whole signs and statues and names are erased on one end - and to balance it - kids get to read about the guys in history class when they'd rather be home playing with their I-pad anyways.

Education about history is decidedly more negative than positive.

If the Left feels that is ok - fine - entitled to opinion but THEN, take no offense when I say - screw Washington and his sissy Mary Delaware crossing and stop using him as any sort of standard now.

Now, if someone says ' put the damn signs, names, and statues back up - honor them, make sure Americans are proud of them and understand them, WHILE ALSO knowing that they did things like owning slaves - well, you'd have an ally in this writer.

I've never ever wanted to censor away things like slavery.

BUT the Woke Left *has* and *does* want to keep statues and signs torn down and out of mind.
