RE: "Changing History"
In light of recent events which challenge the validity of holding certain individuals in high esteem, I would like to weigh in, and emphatically state that I believe that anyone who has ever held slaves should be erased from history, and all monuments, flags or other written documentation representing their lives should be forever banished from our sight and minds.
The following in alphabetical order, is a list of those we should begin with.
Abraham - Hebrew leader
Augustus Caesar - Roman Emperor
Christopher Columbus - Explorer
Demosthenes - Greek Philosopher
Benjamin Franklin - Inventor and Journalist
U.S. Grant - American President and General
Hannibal - Mid-Eastern Conqueror
Sam Houston - General and Hero of Texas
Pope Innocent VIII - Religious Leader
Ferdinand Magellan - Explorer
Mohammed - Religious Leader
Moses - Prophet of God
Ramses - Egyptian Leader
Solomon - Mighty King of Wisdom
George Washington - Father of our country
This is of course, only a partial list which can be added to later.
