American Museum of Natural History to remove Roosevelt statue decried as white supremacy

Visitors to the American Museum of Natural History look at a statue of Theodore Roosevelt, which includes a man in a Native American headdress, Friday, Nov. 17, 2017, in New York. A commission appointed by New York's mayor to evaluate statutes and monuments and ensure there are no "symbols of hate" on public property held its first hearing Friday, featuring a mix of citizens who thought some monuments should be taken down and others who lambasted the committee's work as an exercise in political correctness.
