I don't know a true brother or sister who is offended by a historical statue, university name, street name or park name. The only ones offended by this are the paid astro-turf activists. There may be a few on the fringe who have been moved to becoming offended due to the media fomenting division.
But actual, real human beings who are not being paid by Crowds On Demand .... very, very few are actually offended by this.

I happen to know quite a few people of color (and even whites) who are absolutely no fan of Confederate Monuments or the Confederate Flag. And they are real people.
You need to get out more. Go downtown and start a conversation about it on the streets with some people of color. I'm sure you'll get a ear full from a number of people who think these things should be removed and put into museums.
