View this post on Instagram Monday night, a day after protesters tried to destroy the obelisk Confederate monument that stood in Birmingham’s Linn Park, the statue was dismantled by a contractor hired by the city. Tuesday morning, only the base remained. 📸: @shaunareporter . . . . . #blacklivesmatter #monument #protest #georgefloyd #birmingham #birminghamalabama A post shared by ReckonAlabama (@reckonalabama) on Jun 2, 2020 at 6:30am PDT
