Costa Blanca Spain...

So while we are toppling the statues of anyone who is deemed to have been racist or had even the slightest connection to the slave trade.

Should a newspaper that was founded and funded on money from a slave owning cotton plantation, supported the confederacy, opposed the proclamation of emancipation, and called Abraham Lincoln's presidency "Abhorrent" only a matter of weeks after his assassination be toppled as well?

Oh and in a 2011 editorial the same newspaper described its historical stance as "of its era"

Can't be accused of double standards now can we?

Why isn't he being pulled down

All will be revealed in due course.

But no it isn't that one.
