Vandalized Stateus in Brussels, Belgium

City of Ghent will remove a bust of King Leopold II from the Zuidpark. The statue was vandalized in early June - and several times in the past in Ghent - Belgium on 22 June 2020. Protests against racism have been raging worldwide since the death of American George Floyd. Due to the increasing awareness of colonialism in Belgium municipalities and mayors will decide what to do with King Leopold II statues and names related to colonial Congo.
