Capitol Fax com - Your Illinois News Radar » Speaker Welch creates new task force to review monuments on state property

I am looking forward to the debates about whether or not the crimes against humanity one committed 500 years ago should determine how much public recognition they deserve and whether or not that recognition must require a detailed acknowledgement of their crimes. I look forward to the statue park full of historical figures with “complicated” histories and the neo-confederate, neo-nazi, and alt-right demonstrations to protect monuments to those who deserve no recognition other than as a footnote in history as people who betrayed their country in order to hold other humans in perpetual bondage. I as excited about this as Facebook’s algorithms are to point our collective uncles down the path to radicalization over the idea of removing embarrassments to our nation from public honors.

Statues on Illinois state property to be reviewed for racism

The Illinois House Wednesday established a task force examining the status of existing statues and monuments on state grounds. The State and Monument Review Task Force was formed in order to evaluate currently standing statues on state property, such as the Illinois State Capitol, and review them for being racist or possibly contributing to a culture of white supremacy. Public hearings are being planned where members of the public can listen to points of view from historians, advocates and other organizations, in order to aid the task force in their recommendations. Those recommendations could include removal of certain statues and building new statues that showcase a more complex view of history.
