Crews began removing
the city’s Confederate
monuments late Tuesday
and finished at about 5:30
a.m. Wednesday. The city
also removed a statue
of Marylander Roger B.
Taney, the U.S. Supreme
Court justice who wrote
the Dred Scott decision
denying citizenship to
African Americans.
Pugh made the deci-
sion Tuesday morning to
remove the monuments
that night in order to
avoid attention.
“It was important that
we move quickly and
quietly,” Pugh said, “and
that’s what we did.”
Elliott Cummings, a
member of the Mary-
land Sons of Confeder-
ate Veterans, denounced
Pugh’s “barbarism and
Taliban-esque actions” in
tearing down the statues.
“I’m angry and very sad
at the same time.”
Cummings also said he
doesn’t think the city fol-
lowed proper protocols,
which would have in-
cluded getting approval
from the Maryland His-
torical Trust to remove
the monuments.

information officer for
the Trust, said in a state-
ment that while “the for-
mal process of removing
the monuments was not
followed, due to the rap-
idly evolving circum-
stances MHT will work
with the city on the re-
location, restoration or
preservation, etc., decid-
ed in accordance with the
current easements.”
Workers used cranes to
lift the towering monu-
ment to Robert E. Lee and
Thomas J. “Stonewall”
Jackson onto a flatbed
truck in the dark.
“I did what was right
for my city,” Pugh said.
“Any city that has Con-
federate statues has con-
cern about violence oc-
curring in their city.
Social justice activists
in Baltimore had pledged
to take the statues down
themselves on Wednes-
day evening. Protesters
in Durham, North Caroli-
na, toppled a monument
to Confederate veterans
on Monday night.
Meanwhile, in Los An-
geles, a stone monument
