So did I. This is Babylon Bee material.

"So did I. This is Babylon Bee material."

You would think that a memorial depicting the end of slavery would include some symbolic representation of liberation, e.g., a figure with broken broken chains or shackles, or maybe a statue of MLK or some other champion of liberation, along with a quote on the pedestal. But a hair pick? "Well, it has a clenched fist on top." Yes, but the clenched fist has become a symbol of leftist-militancy in general, and is a divisive symbol rather than a uniting one. Moreover, in my opinion it makes the hair pick look almost like a weapon, like something you would stab somebody with.
