The Spin

Left narrative

The Naming Commission continues to prove its worth, this time finding a racist monument many had missed. This is what the commission was created to do; not to erase history, but to make sure those who don't deserve celebration get removed from prominent public places.

Daily Kos

Right narrative

You can't simply "cancel" the Confederacy and everything unsavory from the annals of national history. A name on a monument or a plaque on a building isn't hurting anyone, and this whole endeavor of renaming and removing things is an expensive goose chase from the woke left.

Breitbart
