In honor of Black History Month, D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton is reintroducing a bill to remove the Lincoln statue from Lincoln Park. It s the first in a series of bills Norton plans to introduce throughout the month that aim to remove racially insensitive statues and memorials across the D.C. region.
Instead of occupying its current post near the center of the park, the bill proposes putting the statue which depicts a formerly enslaved person with shackles on his wrists kneeling before President Abraham Lincoln in a museum with an explanation of its origin and meaning, according to a press release.

That move, however, is likely to draw criticism from activists who have pushed Biden to forgive more debt per person, in some cases up to $50,000, via executive action upon taking office.
