Here is how the Germans are handling it... from 2021... Karl Marx has a road...
If conservatives believe this, they should study how hard Germans labor to understand their Nazi past. Germans don't routinely abandon or destroy Nazi sites but, rather, often redeploy them in an earnest effort to remember and repent.
Last summer, while in Germany for the first time in 30 years, I was surprised to see Berliners hadn't demanded a new name for one of their city's prominent thoroughfares -- Karl-Marx-Allee. The grand boulevard flows east from Berlin's center, guarded on both sides by massive Soviet-era housing complexes, now private apartments.
Germany has much to teach us about our Confederate memorials
