      I suppose in Queen Victoria's case, she was actually all the things those titles say she was? Also, she's being labelled a racist, slaveowner etc right now and some of her statues have been vandalised for that.

      Correct move by government ! King of Africa should be in Africa, not Malaysia !

      Had it not for BLM, no one would give a damn. We should look at ourselves first. There's enough racial discrimination in our own backyard for us to worry about.
