I wonder if they will also remove the plaque marking the classroom where he taught mathematics and cannon gunnery?

He taught his (8?) slaves to read, against Virginia law,
because he thought it was wrong not to permit people to read the scriptures.

But today’s black students are offended at his statue...

just as they are by Lincoln’s.
