Beyoncé always and forever
There are way too many erected statues of old, white, racist men that simply should not exist.
Glorifying racism isn't just wrong, it's disgusting, and there are plenty of other people who deserve statues in place of these literal losers.
A man in Virginia, Nathan Coflin, has started a petition to erect a statue of Missy Elliot in Portsmouth and he seems to have the right idea.
Why are we continuously putting up statues of men who don't deserve it? Why are we trying to preserve the wrong kind of history? There are plenty of other people out there who have shaped the world and our lives who deserve to be immortalized in bronze. In fact, here are ten people who deserve statues more than the confederate morons (need better insult here).
Meryl Streep as Julia Child
columbia pictures
Specifically, this image of her holding the chicken.
Britney Jean Spears
Haters back off, the Princess of Pop just sang live this past weekend reminding us all that she is now and forever perfection. Immortalize her and fast.
John Stamos
Like the finest wine, Uncle Jesse just keeps getting better with age. It'd be hard to capture his beauty in bronze but I believe someone should be up for the task.
The girl who wore McDonald's bags as shoes
She is a true hero to us all.
Asahd Khaled
This was not sponsored in any way, shape, or form by DJ Khaled.
RuPaul
This statue better WORK.
Fiona the Hippo
She's an inspiration to us all.
Chance the Rapper
Not only is he talented AF but he's doing more for Chicago and for the people than any of those confederate shitholes ever did. Chance for President 2020.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
No explanation necessary. #Notoriousrbg for life.
Beyoncé
Because duh.
