Been reported Ben Kingsley is of Indian descent, so actually him being Ghandi is ok

Big Gone with the Wind fan are you?

Would that be the same Ben Kingsley that was born Krishna Pandit Bhanji but changed his name because he felt a foreign name would hurt his career because of institutional racism in the film industry bladewave

My point about Gone with the Wind is that it is emblematic of the tribalism of the culture wars. How many people who are angered about Colston, GOTW, Little Britain etc had never heard of him or had never/only once or twice watched them? You see this represented in all forms of tribalism. The long history of sectarian violence in Glasgow between Protestants & Catholics, how many times has someone been jumped just for wearing one of the Old Firm's strips?

I remember an interview with a black man who worked to deradicalize members of The KKK and the first thing he always asked them was "How can you hate me when you don't even know me?"

Statues are not erected to teach us about individuals, they come with a small biography at best that never points out their flaws because they are made precisely to honour them. Nobody says this guy was a bad man, quick lets put up statue so everyone knows about it. Colston was a slave trader, he enslaved 100K people, 20K of them died because of the squalid conditions his ships provided because he viewed them as inferior. What are we trying to preserve by putting up a statue in his honour? What do we lose about our history by removing it? He isn't taught in schools, he doesn't have books, tv & films made about him, he did not have a drastic impact on our history he wasn't Henry VIII, Robert the Bruce or Nye Bevan, he was just a bloke that got rich off slavery.

How can they defend his statue when they didn't even know him?

What importance does he have other than the existence/removal of his statue makes him a member of your tribe in the culture wars?
