I love Teddy Roosevelt. The statue in front of the Museum of Natural History is pretty racist.
COMRADE De BLASIO’s WRECKING BALL: ‘NYC’s Museum of Natural History to remove Teddy Roosevelt statue, officials say’
Akin to a national wrecking ball, officialdom — in tandem with like-minded communist/Islamic anarchists — is hell-bent on destroying each and every monument representing American history. It is not for nothing.
Not unlike the Taliban, ISIS, and Maoist brigades, the storm-troopers swathing across America are determined to destroy, thus, erase, the nation’s cultural history and, with it, the historical memory thereof. Yes, all of it must lie in ruins to achieve their political ends. Much of this national devastation can be explained via the below link and bears no repeating.
TALIBAN/ISIS/MAO-LIKE: The Cultural Purging of America: From ‘Portland: George Washington Statue Torn Down, Draped in Burning U.S. Flag’ and Onward
Still yet, visual aids are always a helpful reminder — a wake up call!
If anyone is naive enough to believe that the above is unrelated to what is lying in ruins all across America, well, it couldn’t be more removed from the (historical) truth and the facts on the ground.
Enter, Comrade DeBlasio’s wrecking ball(s)…..

NYC’s Museum of Natural History to remove Teddy Roosevelt statue, officials say
A prominent statue of Theodore Roosevelt will be removed from the entrance of The American Museum of Natural History in New York City after years of objections that it symbolizes colonial expansion and racial discrimination, officials including Mayor Bill de Blasio announced.
The bronze statue that has stood at the museum’s Central Park West entrance since 1940, as the New York Times reported, depicted Roosevelt on horseback with a Native American man and an African man standing next to the horse.
“The American Museum of Natural History has asked to remove the Theodore Roosevelt statue because it explicitly depicts Black and Indigenous people as subjugated and racially inferior,” de Blasio announced Sunday in a written statement. “It is the right decision and the right time to remove this problematic statue.”

“Over the last few weeks, our museum community has been profoundly moved by the ever-widening movement for racial justice that has emerged after the killing of George Floyd,” the museum’s president, Ellen Futter, told the Times.
“We have watched as the attention of the world and the country has increasingly turned to statues as powerful and hurtful symbols of systemic racism,” she added. “Simply put, the time has come to move it.”

Anti-racism demonstrations have continued in major cities, with some turning violent, after the May 25 killing in Minneapolis of George Floyd, the African-American man who died after a white police officer was seen pressing his knee on his neck.
Officials said it hasn’t been determined when the Roosevelt statue will be removed and where it will go.
The composition of the equestrian statue does not reflect Theodore Roosevelt’s legacy,” Theodore Roosevelt IV, a great-grandson of the president, said in a statement to the Times. “It is time to move the statue and move forward.”
Futter said the museum objected to the statue but not to Roosevelt, a pioneering conservationist whose father was a founding member of the institution and who served as New York’s governor before becoming the 26th U.S. president. She said the museum was naming its Hall of Biodiversity for Roosevelt “in recognition of his conservation legacy.”

BOTTOM LINE: If patriots do not take an immediate stand, rest assured, there will be nothing left of American history left standing. Nothing!!
And anyone who still thinks that officialdom will come to the rescue and preserve the nation’s history, well, the tooth-fairy is not far behind!
