After reading some of the comments, I see that America needs to really revamp the educational system. We have too many people posting ignorant comments and we like to write it off as trolling, but it truly comes from a lack of education.

I really enjoy how Kehinde took Confederate sculptures and flipped them upon their head to empower the very people that the Confederacy did not want to empower. Really creative idea, and I bet it’s empowering to a lot of people. Really well made and enjoyable art piece.

I really like it and the message it gives.. It's very powerful but I'm curious who actually "made" it?

@@SouthernGentleman I see your point, howbeit it wouldn't be able to give off the same effect of seeing people we walk by everday depicted in power. I think there should be historical ones for our heroes as well, but as far as an artist creating his own image and personal message is not be taken the same way a historic statue should.

A guy says he likes working with people who are provocative and political. And this statues going to Richmond. Where statues that are 'provocative and political ' are being taken down. And it's not a diverse statue it's a black man on a black horse. If the old statues were left alone and this one got put up then yes there would be diversity. The older statues are works of art as well. Don't erase the past use it as a reminder.

so you're defending statues of racists that remind people who live in those cities every day that those racists are praised for being so
