They’re coming down

In the past couple of days, two statues have been taken down on Monument Ave. Stonewall Jackson, upon his horse, and Matthew Fontaine Maury, a confederate officer, were removed by order of Richmond’s mayor, Levar Stoney. This is a good thing, a historical moment that I am witnessing. These confederate statues are coming down throughout the United States. Some are being razed by protesters, some in the middle of the night by state goverments, and some like these in broad daylight.
