The justification for removing these monuments is about their actions (Robert E Lee being a Confederate or Jefferson owning slaves). https://www.npr.org/2023/10/26/1208603609/confederate-general-robert-e-lee-monument-melted-down-charlottesville-virginia https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/11/24/us/thomas-jefferson-statue-removed/index.html
