Lazy, pampered, whiney whites won't do a job a self-starting, self-respecting Black man who's not afraid of work happily accepts. Lol.

There really doesn't seem to be any erasing of history going on here. Think of historical commemoration, interpretation and observation as influenced by something akin to an Overton Window. AP Hill violated his oath to the Constitution and engaged in an armed revolt against the United States of America. Will that be "erased"? Not likely. But does the fetish folks in previous generations had for these people need to occupy a prominent place today, other than as objects suitable for study in, say, a museum? (A matter for discussion, to be sure.). My view is that unless that effigy of Little Powell commemorates him being so incapacitated by the clap that he needed to repeat his final year at West Point (there's a historical fact plus one of those solemn oaths of allegiance again), how on earth does that monument inform the present?
