Remove this racist "monument"! There is nothing to celebrate here. Nothing worth preserving. This is a constant reminder of how far we have yet to come to show the black community that their lives matter! Enough is enough! Keeping this up and making the tax payers preserve it is vile and a slap in the face to every single black resident. Do the right thing and remove it immediately.

A change must come . And the removal of this market will be a good place to start . The market was wrong back then, and it's still wrong in 2020.

This should’ve been tore down. Slavery is nothing to celebrate or memorialize.

If we are not going to teach our children our rich history, and not teach history that was stolen but leave these symbols of oppression for them to wonder about

I agree that it is time for this to be a distant memory... I say tear it down. The very presence of it has become , always have been and will always remain a constant reminder of how our people suffered and now how others are trying to drag us back.
Renewed times, “ Take It down! “
