But it's a monument to supporters of slavery.

(63,912 posts)I didn't think of the Alamo but I will say that Fort Worth has a fine art museum, The Kimbell. Damn, I wish I could go right now https://www.kimbellart.org/

(42,307 posts)the recently opened African American museum with its memorial to lynching in Alabama. The Edmund Pettus Bridge. Savannah, Charleston, Atlanta, Cherokee, NC, Asheville, NC.
I can keep going. I've lived in FL for 30 years. Being a Democrat in a red/purple state, in a very red county, is a big challenge and gets frustrating.
OTOH, the Democratic Women's club that I helped to found had 42 people at its first meeting of the year - a record. And that number included 20 new people. Every one of our votes counts and some day, I hope, we can get to a point where we appreciate all our states -- once the Republican menace is gone.

There are wonderful cultural monuments all over this country. I hate seeing DUers once again deriding some states writ large.
