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.”

We had a German exchange student in 1959, and Ingeborg said they did not teach about World War II at all because of the shame, apparently… You cannot ERASE history — ever!
Talk about libtard stupidity. Wilson was the start of the progressive movement.
That is barbaric. Liberals are behaving like primitive Muslims, at least are repeating their actions.
The ones removing history are the racists. WHY ARE WE ALLOWING THIS TO HAPPEN?
racist to remove them…there should be a national declaration that no national monuments or History statues be removed. History is for the Nation not the whim of current residents. History is what it is. our history… not to be forgotten or what we have learned from it.
I just dont think you should ever erase history…thats what dictators do…Russia, China, etc…if you erase history you are bound to make the same mistakes…remember your history and you wont…this needs to stop…political correctness has too many consequences not to mention it hinders freedom of speech…
So what does that mean? Does it mean they didn’t exist? Didn’t do good things? Not reflective of society at that time? Some might call that cleansing of our history. I call it anti intellectual. I call it a missed opportunity to see how society evolves, grows, learns.
Try as they might, blacks and liberals cannot change history. This is pathetic and just got to show how petty minded people are.
Stupid politics!
Sick of people bowing down to this .A day will come and people will not take this$#%&!@*anymore .Its not all about these people who are doing this .its not about right or wrong .Its history .
