This campaign is over.
Basically a lot of the professors who signed the letter to get rid of Confederate monuments would not support this effort. The money was allocated to repair Fair Park without any consideration of dealing with the triumphalist white supremacy of Fair Park. We have it here for the record. Not a current project.
Open Letter Concerning Fair Park
In this letter we ask that the triumphalist white supremacy of Fair Park be confronted. The letter is in the Scribd box. The co-signers follow after the Scribd box. We have a video on the Triumphalist White Supremacy of Fair Park on this web page after the signatures. For the 54-page paper on the Triumphalist White Supremacy of Fair Part go to this page.
