>>Truly a culture war against America.<<

And a small minority is driving the entire process. The tail waging the dog, yet Americans are letting it happen.

The Mellon Foundation is doing what it’s charter demands. The person in charge cannot select out the “OK” monuments to some meme she has in mind. There is a BOD.
