the removal of Gone With the Wind not coincidentally has been pushed by the "12 Years a Slave" writer who demands that his depiction of slavery be the only one you can watch. He felt the compliant, docile slave shown in Gone With the Wind must be forgotten (even though field slaves are a very small part of the film) and replaced with his version told from the slave point of view.
It's simply a power trip to recreate history. Probably not long until he successfully removes Margaret Mitchell's book from all American libraries.

next up will be the removal of John Calhoun's name from Clemson University even though Clemson was built on Calhoun's plantation. Calhoun was selected by a Senate committee led by JFK as one of the 5 greatest Senators of all time (in addition to Sec of State, Sec of War, and Vice-POTUS) but was fervently pro-slavery so must be erased from Clemson University and from all American history.

Just part of the pathology as riots occur, books and movies are banned, buildings are renamed and then the same leaders responsible for the continued oppression of minorities are re-elected so they can gear up for the next outrage. People like Jesse, Maxine and Sharpton as well as the governors and mayors of cesspool states and cities have done more to maintain the status quo than any police officer, President or white person.

during the 2009-2011 Obama years the Dems had a black president, a black Attorney General (POS Holder), and control of both the House and Senate. If police brutality and racism was that important to them they had all the chess pieces on the board to enact change (and don't forget about hope). Now they parade their old white asses out in Ghanaian scarves parroting bumper sticker phrases that mean absolutely nothing

“Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.”
― George Orwell, 1984
“Everything faded into mist. The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became truth.”
― George Orwell, 1984
“Day by day and almost minute by minute the past was brought up to date. In this way every prediction made by the Party could be shown by documentary evidence to have been correct; nor was any item of news, or any expression of opinion, which conflicted with the needs of the moment, ever allowed to remain on record. All history was a palimpsest, scraped clean and reinscribed exactly as often as was necessary.”
― George Orwell, 1984
Statues being taken down, military bases being re named, everything... it is happening
