colston hall conversation
That’s an easy one, the Victorian Bristolian Tory party literally re-wrote history by making Colston a hero. The statue was bought and paid for by a bunch of Tories who dumped it on the city without permission. We are closer today to that statue going up than its creation is to Colston’s death. There were telephones in use and cars on the streets of Britain when that thing went up
Same with all the other Colston stuff

Had the usual drunk generational conflict arguments with my dad Saturday evening.
He is in his mid 70s, thinks a bit if racism is ok, we shouldn't rewrite history (colston hall conversation).
