Iow, Northam had this as a secret plan all along.

It’s fine to have a monument to emancipation, but it violates the agreement that gave the state the land for the monument to Lee.

Both can exist. But Coonman needed a sacrifice from someone else to expiate his guilt for his earlier behavior.

“But Coonman needed a sacrifice from someone else to expiate his guilt for his earlier behavior.”

You nailed it.

Coonman has been a wonderful tool for his masters. All they have to do is to look in a general direction and he knows exactly what he has to do.

*shrug* I like the new statue. The chains falling away, the hint of disbelief on the face.

What I don't like is the removal of Robert E. Lee.

Both are parts of our history.

Somehow I don’t believe they could have designed this monument and cast it in just two weeks. How long have they planned this and who paid for it?
