Remove Rizzo
Let’s demote this “crumb bum”
and remove his statue from the steps of Philadelphia’s Municipal Services Building.
Frank Rizzo’s legacy of racial divisiveness and thuggery is no longer one that
Philly should endorse. Like an effigy of an authoritarian dictator, the statue
looms over our provincial politics and is a symbol of our dysfunction. Move him
somewhere less prominent and let’s reserve our high profile public spaces for
memorials of figures that all Philadelphians can be proud of.

ReplyDeleteBring ot on!Joe you will envoke mob mentality to stop your movement. This is not a thing I would try if you're smart.
ReplyDeleteWith a changing society a sociaties symbols must change with it this promoting growth. You did say move it to a less profiled place and I think that would be righteous, a museum for instances and our history books so the symbol's lesson is never forgotten.
