I can’t imagine for the life of me why such a wrongheaded, myopic statue ever went up in the first place. I can’t bear to look at when it’s shown on the news. Please, please remove it. Black Americans deserve dignity and respect, not this blasphemy.

In the bastion of democracy, I am stunned to see this appalling statue. Boston has always had a deep prejudicial, racist undercurrent throughout history. This statue certainly supports that. Do the right thing even though history hasn't. Remove that statue now.

Take it down, if it’s a part of our past that’s where it belongs in a museum maybe with its story for us all to learn from.

How beautiful if it were recreated and they were standing side by side 2 hands in the air, victorious. This has got to go NOW.

This is not how Abe would want to be reflected. This is insulting to the POC and needs to be removed immediately.
