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.”

Shame on us for allowing this to happen
Uhhh, Woodrow Wilson was a DemocRAT. Did any liberals bother to check ? And yea, he was a racist.
Pres Trump should put the back where they belong…sick of the racist c**p
No you can’t change the past. I didn’t say you could. Our past is in the History books and it has shaped the future.
Who is removing them?
It is the hisyltory.
Forget it .it could happen again
SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED THIS IS PART OF OUR HISTORY WHAT THE HELL ARE AMERICANS DOING STAND UP AND FIGHT.
What! he statues are racists and the painting that congressman Clay put in Congress Hall is not, while portraying policemen as a pig?
Same$#%&!@*the Taliban and ISIS does. Anything deemed offensive to the religion of liberalism will disappear.
Unbelievable!!! You can’t change the future by trying to change history by ignoring it or trying to “erase” it. You can only change the future by facing the truth of the past and working to not repeat it. By “erasing” the true past, they are repeating the past that led to loss of personal freedoms.
