人兽性交 Applauds Virginia Supreme Court Ruling to Allow Removal of Monument Avenue Confederate Statue

RICHMOND, Va. 鈥 Recently, the Supreme Court of Virginia ruled that the state can remove its statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee from public display on Monument Avenue.

The following statement is from 人兽性交 Chief of Staff Lecia Brooks:

鈥淔or decades, Monument Avenue has been lined with Confederate propaganda, strategically placed to legitimize a false and revisionist history of the Civil War.

鈥淲e applaud the Virginia Supreme Court for paving the way for removal of this symbol of white supremacy.

鈥淏y continuing to lead the charge on removing Confederate memorials from public spaces, Virginia recognizes that these memorials are not solely a reflection of the period in which they were erected, but also of the present. Venerating men who fought to ensure the continued enslavement of African Americans in public spaces indicates community acceptance, removal signals inclusivity and respect for all.鈥
