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.”

Im sorry. U cant rewrite history. What has happened has happened. All we can do is learn from it. If u ignore it and refuse to learn u are bound to repeat. These people are just to me assholes that cant except the past.
This is worse than pussification!
This is ridiculous….history is just that. Who is doing this atrocity.
Communism
So sad
Dumb people. You cant destroy history.
You know liberals are dumb. Wilson was a democrat.
These people don’t even know what the civil war was all about. They don’t even realize what all these statues represent! Instead they choose one issue from the past as THE qualifying characteristic of these historical figures and to soothe their egos want to deprive everyone else of these reminders of our history that were not limited by any means to their chosen issue of racism!
STUPID DECISION! WHERE IS YOUR BACKBONE! IF you are an American citizen..STAND UP AND FIGHT BACK! THIS is OUR NATION!!!
That’s not right. What about the people that want those statues to stay exactly where they were for years! It’s part of our history good and bad. I’m tired of all this political correctness that didn’t even exist 20 years ago!
