This elaborate monument on Monument Avenue spotlights Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederate States of America. It was targeted on Saturday night as part of the frustration and anger resulting from the death of George Floyd. I walked along Monument Avenue on Sunday to document the damage. I was not the only one. People, both Blacks and Whites, came to look and ponder. It was disturbing, but I think all in attendance felt we were seeing something that needed to be said.
@bkbinthecity@eudora@sarah19@gijsje Thank you all. If we could just change the leadership in November, I think we can get out of this nightmare. Please keep us in your hearts.
@gijsje He is a monster. I have seen the same photo placed right next to a photo of Hitler doing the same thing. The comparison is accurate I’m afraid.
🙏and 💛 for kindness and care for everyone.
Yes, I saw that too.
