For Once, Good News


In this time when many American cities are grappling with the issue of Civil War monuments and statues of openly segregationist politicians and wondering whether to leave them up or take them down, Atlanta today unveiled a new statue of the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.   

Today.

At the State Capital.

At the high-visibility intersection of Martin Luther King Jr. Drive and Capitol Avenue.

I agree with Trump that we should preserve these "beautiful statues and monuments," at least in this particular instance.
