Depends on the statue.

So you confirm my statement about judging previous generations by your standards. History will do the same to you.

Would you accept a compromise that kept the statues but added the words "this person was also a huge racist" to the didactic panel?

No I would not. I would be in favour of a plaque that laid out the persons accomplishments both the good and the ugly. People can decide for themselves. You just want to use statues as a different kind of propaganda.
