Although I am a big campaigner for equality, not just in race but in gender and even alternative lifestyles... I do think there is a danger here in finding fault in every statue, building, work of art, etc and our history heritage and culture will be compromised, if not eradicated. History may be taken off the British schools' curriculum. I am a great believer in human rights but maybe we need to revisit and evaluate every work of art, ultimately assigning a true assessment rather than eradicating every symbol . It is frightening to know where this may lead. As an Englishmen I am patriotic, but I wouldn't like to see the wonderful portraits of Napoleon being desecrated or destroyed. it's a huge dilemma now and only a sensible and sensitive solution might suffice. I hope we can all work this out without the violence that we have witnessed.
