Richmond Virginia had a beautiful Monument Avenue and the woke crowd destroyed it. Whatever they put up today will never compare to the beauty of those Confederate statues. Generations after generations got to enjoy the beautiful avenue but future will not.

You know what. You are wrong, it doesn’t make sense to me. Almost every flag has a dark side. Even yours abs mine, for example my flag is from the Netherlands, my flag has been a part of the WIC and the VOC, trading for slaves, my flag is still the same. Almost. The American flag has been in her time of expending west. Killed millions and millions of native Americans. Britain was the largest colonie and in that time had millions of slaves by expanding territory every where, British flag is stil the same. The Belgium flag has killed something between 15 million slaves during the congo. Belgium flag didn’t change and is still being seen as a national flag, I can go on and on about all these flags. At end of the day, flags and nations have always done something bad. Every one of them. So i think if we just live like this respecting also our flags that in that time also thought like the confederate states of America that black people where unworthy. Then the southern people of America can also respect their confederate flag, because if that flag shows hate and racism. Then you are also a racist. And me and the black activists protesting. Then we can call the human a racist. Black, yellow, white, etc. I hope you think good about that this whole situation about a flag is not important. As well also for statues

Statues are made to celebrate people, do you celebrate racism? Would you appreciate a statue of a pedophile in your city? So that when people find to your city they can see how your people celebrate pedophilia? 4. If the history is so important to you, put these statue in a "Museum of racists". Furthermore, the vast vast majority of these statue were built waaaay after the civil war, so they're not half as historical as you think.

Why are you so obsessed with them remaining? Do you know why they were erected in the first place?

@Jaime Granado, I've never understood why people claim it's erasing history. No, it's: not *honoring* people who fought to keep a whole group of people enslaved. The statues can be put in museums, we have history books, we have videos, we have art, we have documentaries etc.; there are so many things that can keep the history alive without honoring them by leaving statues of what they represent in the middle of a nation.

I am only 13 but I know way more about the Confederacy than people who are way older than me. This is heritage these statues are not racist. I'm very supportive and I take part of SCV, and UDC meetings and activities I also participate in civil war reenactments. My ancestors were slave owners but in all of the letters and artifacts I have they treated them as family. Confederate armies would mostly fight under their state flag, the Confederate flag is not racist. Most people think that the monuments were put up during the Jim Crow Era which they were but they were not put up to be racist the Confederate veterans were dying out and the south wanted them to be remembered and honored. Also when freed during the civil war alot of slaves chose and also volunteered to fight for the Confederacy. Remember if your family is from any of the 11 Confederate states or the 2 border states even if you are black or white your ancestors probably fought in the Confederacy.

I am probably going to get hate for this, but I think that some should stay up, specifically those that honor the dead. Yes they died to a corrupt cause but when you think about the times, they really didn't know better. Its what they grew up with and its all they knew. Its the argument of "can you blame a solder for following orders?" Doesn't mean that its right but rather people are applying 21st century values during a time were sadly most of those values didn't exist. Im not condoning the actions of racist people just stating what I see. People seem to forget that you can't apply the same mindset of current time to history. The values were different, the times were different, even morals were different and both parties are guilty of it in some way. Rather than destroy and forget, remember that painful history and be happy that its no longer the world people live in, that we are better than our ancestors. We can make a change by looking to the past and making sure we don't make the same mistakes in the future. Disagree or agree with me its your choice, Im just putting my opinion out there.

"when you think about the times, they really didn't know better" Do you assume abolitionists appeared out of thin air after the Civil War and were the first ones to realize that dehumanizing people of color, slaughtering them wholesale, torturing them and their families, and owning them as property is bad? Because there were plenty of people at the time who knew better. They're the reason Lincoln won.

Don’t people know Confederacy was extremely diverse? Mexicans, African Americans, Jews, Irish, French Algerians, and Cubans fought for the Confederacy. Like Stand Watie, Loretta Velasquez, Moses Ezekiel, W.S Lewis, and Santos Benavides.

L Wrong! 70% of the south didn’t have slavery, the north had 5 slave states, Grant was a owner, and many confederates were anti slavery and civil rights activists. The Nazis committed genocide and world domination

Why do you want to destroy southern ethnicity? Why do you support cultural genocide and ethnic cleansing? This is pretty hateful. Ethnic groups share a common set of traditions, ancestry, language, history, society, culture, nation, religion. Taking down monuments of a ethnic group like southerners who share a common ancestry is a crime against humanity according to the United Nations

I agree. When the Confederacy owned humans as slaves, tried to enforce pro-slavery laws on escaped slaves in non-slaveholding states, and forced Confederate states to keep slavery legal, it was then truly pathetic for them to portray themselves as fighting for "states' rights" and "heritage" rather than seditious losers and racists. They tried to force acceptance of slavery on the US, and now they try to pretend that these statues are their "culture". It is truly ignorant, appalling, and disappointing. Thank you for highlighting it.

@@Ben00000 Yep, slavery was wrong, but when will you be satisfied? The south lost and slaves were freed. In 1964 they had the Civil Rights Act which ended Jim Crow laws. Human history is not perfect, nor will it ever be. Take down all those Confederate memorials but it doesn't change history. What will be next thing that offends you? Probably George Washington and Thomas Jefferson who had slaves. Better take down the Washington monument too. Those statues and memorials honor the bravery of those who fought for their homes and families and nothing more. Always looking for something to be offended about. Are you offended at the murder of the unborn? Over 60 million babies ripped apart in their mother's womb since Roe vs. Wade in 73 and it still continues today, but slavery ended 157 years ago. What about all the black on black crime that has killed thousands and continues today? For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Rom. 3:23

@@horseman528 Hmm, you offer a lot of interesting distractions from the crimes perpetuated by the Confederates, but I think my point still stands. When it comes to the topic of the video, Confederate statues, I don’t lose sleep at night knowing we have fewer monuments to people who killed US troops over their proclaimed “right” to own humans as property. You typed an awful lot of finger-pointing and outrage for someone so eager to accuse others of “victimhood” and “being offended”.

@@Ben00000 Facts are facts. I didn't make them up. The point is you zero in on one group of people while completely ignoring the wrongs of the others. There's none righteous, no not one so get off your name calling and high horse. Go back far enough in your own history, you'll find people who owned slaves. Fact is that every race, ethnicity, and nation has had slavery at one time or the other. Doesn't make it right, its just a fact. We all need to see history for what it was and not try to erase everything that offends us. Otherwise you learn nothing but how to manipulate and control others through pc and thought policing which is a form of slavery in itself. I don't go around insisting that others take down everything that offends me. I just give them their right to express themselves as they wish since they are accountable for what they believe.

@@horseman528 Calling political correctness a "form of slavery" in a conversation about _actual_ slavery is the _epitome_ of you "loving your victimhood". Two comments in a row spent trying to focus on anybody _except_ the Confederates is the height of "being offended". Pointing the finger at numerous other atrocities to avoid talking about the Confederacy, the subject of the video we're commenting under, which seceded to keep black people enslaved, and killed US soldiers en masse to do so, is the pinnacle of being anti-American.
