LINK Four men charged for trying to tear down Andrew Jackson statue in DC | TheHill
Jackson's statue has been targeted because of his severe treatment of Native Americans in the 19th century . . . Many demonstrators, lawmakers and advocates have called for the removal of Confederate statues in and around the nation's capital."
Question: Is removal of racist historical figures necessary to eradicate systemic racism?
( IMO, removal is absolutely necessary. )

Yes, partial solution, and every part of the US system needs to change in varying degrees.
It's shocking, but not shocking, that this administration cares more about statues of racists being vandalized than POC being murdered by the police. It's yet another level to their deplorable beliefs and behaviors.

Shocking to me is that there are many who don't feel that murders of POC by police and by others is not shocking.
Also shocking is that, contrary to federal law, POC still are being deprived of their right to vote.
