1/2 Organisations like this and the UK’s History Reclaimed, set up as part of the anti-BLM backlash, say they are merely protecting colonial figures from the harsh judgement of a more liberal posterity. More often, they are are actually defending those figures’ own actions & values.

"The Israelis shot and killed an innocent young woman and then caused the death of her unborn baby, too.

Shocking, right? Depraved? Murderous? And yet, as of Monday morning, there was no mention of Sundus Shalabi on...the New York Times or the BBC" - me, for Zeteo:
Israel Just Killed a Pregnant Palestinian Woman – And Western Media Doesn’t Care
How many Palestinian women and children have to be killed in the occupied West Bank before anyone in the US or UK gives a damn?
