It looks like Representative Norton wants it taken down. See <a href="https://wtop.com/dc/2020/06/norton-puts-emancipation-statue-in-lincoln-park-under-scrutiny-for-removal/">https://wtop.com/dc/2020/06/norton-puts-emancipation-statue-in-lincoln-park-under-scrutiny-for-removal/</a><br>

<div>As a resident of the Lincoln Park neighborhood since 1963, I stood in my front yard in 1968 and watched H Street and the People's Drug Store at the northeast corner of 11th and East Capitol Street burn. It frightens me that vandalizing is happening once
again. I agree with Barbara that the statue should be kept. She is correct that our park should BE a teachable moment.</div>

<div>FYI, the National Park Service is in charge of the Frederick Douglass home at Cedar Hill. It is currently closed due to the covid-19, but is well worth visiting. Douglass was the Registrar of Deeds of DC a position which is always held by a Black person.</div>

<div dir="ltr">What do you think about asking the Park Service to, at least temporarily, remove the Lincoln statue to another place until things calm down, or until something is decided about what to do with it.
<div>I saw some local news pieces tonight and there are some people who really want the statue gone.</div>
<div>I just don't want to see a scene in Lincoln Park similar to what happened this evening to the Albert Pike statue near Judiciary Square.</div>
<div>My two cents? I never liked the statue; it is condescending and insulting, and I'd be glad to see a statue of Frederick Douglass in the park -- maybe a statue commemorating Frederick Douglass' unannounced visit to the White House to visit Lincoln, and
their very interesting relationship. Just asking some questions.</div>

Surely no one could seriously consider removing our Lincoln statue. It was paid for by subscription by former slaves in D.C.

pulled out a few, but there’s more to pry up (it’s not hard-screwdriver and a little muscle). I’m hoping to keep it out of a landfill.
