businessman cecil rhodes at an oxford college, seen by some as a white supremacist, more than half the city council now want the statue removed. it's streetstional curriculum teaches children properly about people's warts and all, some things they have done that we don't approve of but there are some statues that are quite clear—cut. slavers, clear—cut, in my view, plantation owners. nelson's column stands tall on the london skyline, a british naval hero for many. for others, his failure to denounce slavery means he should be taken down. but removed or just explained better? i think the column is quite important as it celebrates the battle of trafalgar. over a third of nelson's sailors were black, you'll see images of black sailors on there, there should be some description to remind us why the column is here, why it was commissioned, but also, recognising his past, his connection to the slave trade, and people can make their own determination. this is increasingly a debate about the teaching and communication of history. if past decisions were wrong, should they now be erased? i'm against it and the reason i am against it is because i'm a
