Comment on Statues of ‘old white men’ may need to be destroyed, Welsh government advises

Comments

Good luck. In Austria we have hundreds of streets named after Nazi collaborators, but there's a huge resistance to changing the names. Same when someone wants to remove a statue placed by Nazis.

When commemorative plaques are placed for victims of Nazi violence, they are defaced or destroyed.

There are a lot of people who just don't want to hear that our ancestors weren't all that noble.
