Many poor people do not have access to the internet. You assuming they do is very elitist of you. It also says a lot about you that you feel you have to be offended on other peoples' behalf. Most people had no problems with these statues or something would have been done in the last 120 years.Yeah, no one cares if you enjoy history or studying it there bub, left included. People just don't like statues of evil people being propped up, just like they didn't like having statues of Lenin, Stalin, Hussein, and Hitler and the people that were oppressed or who's family had suffered from said oppression tore down their statues.
Yet, even though their statues have been gone for years, you can still learn their history quite easily.
Here I will even help you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_E._Lee
See how easy that is? Now all you have to do is drag your mouse cursor over the link and click it, and you can read all about the person's who's statue was removed and the amazing thing is, you can do that with literally anyone or any event from history as we know it now.
However, I doubt you were ever wanting to have a serious discussion and just want to screech "ThE lEfT", which is slowly becoming more typical of accounts that have hardly any activity, except political talk and/or are new accounts.
But hey since you brought it up, remind me again who it is that want to rename slavery and soften/erase history recently?

They received a proposal from 9 educators to make the change, but I can't find who they are. If I was a betting man, I would bet that it gets shot down. I'm all for keeping the term slavery. I'm also all for pointing out who were the slave owners, the ones who created the KKK, the ones who tried to keep the South segregated and the ones who advocate for killing 70 million black babies over the last 50 years. Hint, they are the same people.
