Removal Of Robert E. Lee Statue In Richmond
Virginia state troopers escort Jappari Jones of Richmond out of the barricaded area as the statue of Confederate general Robert E. Lee is removed from its enormous pedestal on Monument Avenue. The Virginia supreme court ruled last week that the six-story monument could be removed. It has yet to be determined whether the pedestal covered in anti-racism graffiti will be removed given its prominent role in the 2020 anti-racism uprising in Richmond.
