Caving in to outcries that they represent the South’s racist past, Greg Fenves, the president of the University of Texas in Austin, announced on Thursday that the statue of Jefferson Davis will be removed from the campus’s Main Mall and moved to the school’s Dolph Briscoe Center for American History.
The statue of Woodrow Wilson was moved as well to “maintain symmetry on the mall.”

What about KFC are they next?
This is history! Why in the hell do they think they can erase it!!!
I’m OK with this. But I’m surprised that they are now admitting that Woodrow Wilson was racist (he was.) He is the patron saint of the Progressive movement.
It was Wilson who re-segregated the Army, after the Republican presidents before him had integrated it.
Hurry Donald,
The racists are the ones pulling them down !! We should all be outraged !!!
So now the statues and flags and names are removed – does that change history? NO.
The statue of Woodrow Wilson was moved as well to “maintain symmetry on the mall.” Woodrow Wilson was probably the more racist of the two!
