PROSVJEDI PROTIV RASIZMA U SAD NE PRESTAJU: U Washingtonu srušen jedini tamošnji spomenik generalu Konfederacije

<para>The Statue of Albert Pike  the only remaining Confederate statue in Washington D.C., the capitol of the USA., was toppled by Black Lives Matter protestors around 11:00 pm near Judiciary Square on Juneteenth, an unofficial American holiday celebrated annually on the 19th of June marking the emancipation of slaves in the United States. A dozen or so Protestors spent about an hour trying to bring down the heavy statue, with newscasters filming and hundreds of police on alert in the area. First, protestors pour paint on the statue which lay on the ground, intact, and set it aflame, until police put it out and those who brought it down quickly left the area. President Trump immediately condemned the police for not intervening, while other law makers acknowledged the time was right to eradicate remnants of slavery, and the statue belongs in a museum to teach about the history of racism. ..About a half hour later, protestors enacted a mock hanging, and lied one end of a rope around the neck of the statue, the other end around a tree, which two of them climbed. An African American protestor explained, This is symbolic, to bring awareness to what was done historically to black people. Police came by and very politely asked protestors to give them room to photograph the statue for their records: the dozen or so people remaining complied. Albert Pike was a Free Mason and that is why there was a statue of him erected in the nation's capitol. </para>
