INTRODUCTION
This report will over the articles and arguments on the articles that covers the back live
matters initiatives and removal of the statues. Institution in all over the world have began to the
question aspect of their history and the recent practice's
Universities in the United Kingdom are covering the issues like decisioning the
circumstances, the background of their people and their student's as well as the Historical issues
relating to their funding and their founding, one question that have been take place is that
whether statute, plaque, or other building laud past slave-owners, liable for some of the bottom
law-breaking in history, should be pulling down to show commonality with the BLM motion.
Argument
Historical figures and their statues are for the inspiration of people, people like Cecil
Rhodes helps people on one side, but he used to helps only White people which is controversial.
SCENARIO
Article 1
One of the top collage Oxford has voted in the favour of removing statue of the Victorian
Imperialist called Cecil Rhodes, The campaign was started before the 4 years by the student's. A
Rhodes profited extended from the Colonialism and was also an Key feature of the southern
Africa's Politics leading to decades of an exploration (Marschall., 2019). A campaign was started
with the name Black lives matter in year 2015 in UK but it was slow down after the completion
of student's graduation. A spokesperson of Oriel collage express their feeling thorough the
statement and in that they express their feeling to remove the statue. here committee will trade
with the problem of the Rhodes legacy and how to changers access and attending of BAME
undergraduate, graduates and staff, together with a reappraisal of how the college’s 21C
committees to diverseness can sit easier with its past.” Divine by student policy in South Africa.
Many students start the campaigns against the removal of likeness of Rhodes, who give their
supported apartheid-style measurements in the South Africa, from the frontage of the college in
2016. The campaign also named for the university program to be denatured to indicate
diverseness of thought beyond the occidental canon and for better assist for BAME student and
staff member. Universities are reported and expected to recruit and select anti-racist. In the years
2016 Orial University only managed to suggest that the statues should be stayed with the all m
modification that drew the attention toward the history and make people tell about what

happened in the history and people who don't know can create cerocity to know about the
history. It also has been warned that it could lose the Gift word 100m Euro to take down a statue.
It was also clear that the universities are skill influenced by the funding organizations Before
minority staff and the black people voted for the support for the birth Rhodes should be fall
down and black lives matter capitation. Telling about the Voice- chancellor, Richardson of the
racism “ from the university (González Zarandona, and Munawar., 2020). It remains to be seen
that the universities will hold their nerves and give their response to the obvious strength of
simply statues removing and opinion, rather than prevaricating further or redesigning it in some
ways simple to please who find a Rodes and all he stood for offensiveness.
Arguments on statues removal
The Statue of Cecil Rhodes should be removed and it will be good step even if he did
some good work for the people. Here are four reason why it should be removed.
 Cecil Rhodes did some good work, but he also Discriminated people and helps only
white people not black people.
 Removing statues can harm the history but it will also create negative impact on the view
of the people from southern Africa mostly of the child.
 Discrimination a crime and their will be no meaning of the campaign run buy the
student's on the black live matter if the statue will be remained within the university.
 Most of the population with in the Southern Africa are black and these statues is hurting
their own views.
ARTICLE-2
In year 2016 decide to support the Rhodes and do not remove the statues, despite the
wishes of all the protestors who were gains Rhodes and gain the Rhodes fall protest are started.
Back to the year 2016, I also felt that removing the statues and memorials of the history
figures like Rhodes is unnecessary (Ndletyana, and Webb.,2017). As abhorrent as its impact on
the whole southern Africa was not make season and its not looking right to remove his statue. the
argument at the case was shady and rigorous, far from the expected feelings-oriented replication
chambers which are claimed to now dominate universities. In light of the Colston statue being
pulled down, I revisited student articles from the 2016 Rhodes discussion, hoping to settle on an
opinion this time around.

One of the argument on removing statues to people like Colston- a trader of the slave- is
that these act constitute an history remember . This argument seems sound, and I am not agree
with it. However. It also shows us about the History to romanticize those figures. Remember
ideal bastions of the human projects or the normal people who have net positive impact the globe
is an law of a ignorance
A Washington Churchill who was the effective lead in his times, and he give contribution
toward the nation by inspiring the people during their difficult times. On the other side the was
also an Imperialist who also describe the Indian people as Beastly people, We should forget
nighters that the Washington could also be sees as second to none is advancing a liberty and the
west democracy (Fubah ., 2020). But he also makes people and treat as slaves. He feed people
from their death and it has been suggested that he was opposed to slavery privately but do not
speak against to preserves the young US.
As one more student journalist write about in year 2016 about Oxford statues of Rhodes
is Living prof of the absurd distortion and Glorification of the activities related to the Imperial
and task about favour of stay the statues.
Argument On Articles
In this article was in four of those figures and structures and it shows that how those
historical figures helps people and shows both side of the people. They show arguments and task
about the structures how they give their contribute to the nation. Here are pors against the
Articles
 Articles was supporting the other side of the Historical figure and mainly focussing
toward the good work of people however people cannot hide their bad habits by using the
good habits.
 Washington example shows that Washington was good leaders but leaders always lead
their people not make them salves. One side he was inspiring the people and other side he
was telling Indian are Beastly, and he was also having slaves. This shows his negative
image and views (Lubinga., 2020).
 People get wrong message from this kind of strategies, and they follow what they used to
do.
 Their are many other people who have give their support to the nation but still their
statues are not there. People should look for their statues as compare of negative people.

Articles 3
In June 7 protestors in Bristol Tore down the statue of the Historical Figure Slave Trader
Edward Conston and Dumped into the harbour. This incident also provoke the other people in
the county to do similar. A people who were protecting for removal of stratus also promote the
other people do the same. no reasonable individual would say no that the slave trade was hideous
and all forms of racism today are insufferable, it is clear that the capability of state is starting to
get out of hand.
In the attempt to promote a farther debate the list 78 statues and imperial in the city and
town on the website called Topple the Racists are complied. This list concludes the statues that
were distributed and also the case that were responsible for the communal violence (Luescher,
Loader, and Mugume., 2017). The stained-glass framework in the dining table or hall of
Gonville and Caius Educational institution pays testimonial to arguable statistician and life
scientist Ronald Fisher, who was also best-known for his bear down views on race and interest in
life science. This seems to be a case not of determination a statue respectful a person, or even
person whose part to knowledge and the body was based on the net income of slavery or
discrimination.
Arguments
 Violence I not the answer or provide solution to the people. The policy created by the
people are not acceptable (Mpofu., 2017).
 Statues should be removed but there should be a proper way to remove the statues.
 Government should stop and take strict action against the posteriors who are promoting
the negative promotion.
 People can show their views and protects for the removing statues, but they cannot create
violence.
CONCLUSION
As per the report has been coved the arguments on the removal of the Statues of the
people who have both negative and positive side, and they were believed to be resit To
arguments goes in the favours of removing the statues but the last articles was supporting the
violence so the arguments were considers as the other ways.
