Fake news. Slaves didn't actually build much of anything. Immigrants did. Mostly the Italians/Irish/Germans. As did our English founders. I would even include the Chinese considering all the work they did expanding the railroad to the West.
Slaves certainly made a contribution to the growth of this country, but let's not make it out to be more than it really was.
The fact is most of those immigrants were slaves. They couldn’t hack it in their country anymore. They came here desperate and died for the wealthy that made there riches off real slave labor. It continues today. Life changes. I hear Northern Europe is still pretty homogeneous.

Sweden is like 1% Black and around 3% Asian. The majority of Swedes are 12th generation or better Scandinavian.
Guess it's easier to tear down statues than replace congresspeople so have at it. Don't expect much for it though. Statues don't have powerful jobs to protect at your expense.
Robert Moses was a firm believer that the suburbs be developed for the "right kind of people" think of him as one of the architects of segregation in the suburbs and many have referred to him as a real S*B.
Read Slaughter of Cities & Power Broker to understand what the suburbs meant to Moses. The suburbs were a means to Americanize / deraccinate the urban ethnics out of their culture and assimilate them to proper american consumer white.

I just got an email from Hofstra University. After debating whether to remove a statue of Thomas Jefferson, they have decided to move it to a less prominent location. Happy July 4th everyone.
