Why do so many people talk like this post is about whether or not you should burn these down or not? Or how they should be maintained?
Girls saw the burning plantation and took a selfie for the symbolic value of it. I don’t see them argue that people should destroy the historical evidence, or anything. They just took a strong symbolic Image and if you don’t like the symbolism in it, you are a weirdo.
Can we just appreciate their picture? Think about its symbolism?
And maybe then we can have the discussion about what to do with these things. People with no knowledge could start with listening. And if needed, they can add their perspective afterwards.
