It's beyond time to remove this statue. Take a cue from local voices like Tory Bullock, and take it down.

Dear Boston, You were my home for a short year and and a half. I loved my time in Boston. You're better than this statue. Please take it down. Thanks.

Please remove all the statues and other honorifics that promote racist ideas in this city. I come from the south and have been appalled by the racism in this city which I always thought of as the home of emancipation. Thank you!
