Why aren't there any statues in Charlottesville that feature a woman or minority as the subject? And why isn't anyone doing anything about it?

Here are some pathetic examples of how minorities and women are given public recognition (Click on Image to Enlarge)

"Why aren't there any statues in Charlottesville that feature a woman or minority as the subject?"

Who would you suggest as a subject? I agree that's it's tiresome to see all these white men around town (though I do have a fondness for Lee), but I can't think of a nationally-prominent, long-dead, local woman or minority.

And, by the way, don't forget Ronald McDonald at Wal-Mart. He's whiter than white :)
