A statue of Thomas Watson stands outside the Georgia State Capitol building. His political legacy is described as perplexing, as he helped advocate for farmers, but was a staunch racist. Should his statue continue to stand at the Capitol? Explain.

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Georgia is a state that is very well known for farming and agriculture. He helped farmers make more money. Yes he was racist I can agree with that, but I dont think what he said was appropriate at that time. His political views were wrong.

This is what my teacher told me so Im sorry if you get it wrong
