To contextualize the article, the argument is the statue is a symbol of unity. How you suppose? Well there is a black woman holding a white baby, and if you view the statue stripped of all historical context, it looks anti-racist.

This is just one more reason those 100 million people who didn't vote in the last election really need to vote, and vote BLUE, in this one.
