      I understand your sentiment but don’t you think they would do the world more good in an exhibit or museum that explains the cultural context? Those who forget are doomed etc.

        Generally I would say yes but a lot of confederate monuments were made after the war so aren’t so much history but an attempt to rewrite it to make themselves look more favorable.
