"Christopher Columbus was a villain of history and his statue should be removed, according to demonstrators who gathered Saturday before one of several statues of the man in this city that bears his name.
The hastily scheduled event at City Hall — drawing more than 100 people and no apparent counterprotestors — was in response to the clashes last weekend in Charlottesville, Virginia, that resulted in the death of one woman. The protest there started in response to the city’s decision to take down statues of Confederate leaders.
Organizers of the Columbus rally said they are trying to stand up to a resurgence of racism and other discrimination across the country.
“Charlottesville is not an anomaly,” said Tynan Krakoff, 29, of Columbus, one of the organizers. “There are symbols and institutions of white supremacy everywhere.”
