A judge in Richmond has issued a 10-day injunction preventing Virginia Gov. Northam’s administration from removing a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee.
Northam’s spokeswoman, Alena Yarmosky, said in a statement that the governor’s administration is still reviewing the order.
Northam last week ordered the statue of Lee taken down, citing the pain felt across the country over the, a black man in Minneapolis, after a white police officer pressed a knee into his neck. Authorities have removed other symbols since protests erupted two weeks ago, including a massive obelisk inand a bronze likeness of Admiral Raphael Semmes that had stood in a middle of a downtown street near the Mobile, Alabama, waterfront for 120 years. In Fredericksburg, Virginia, a 176-year-old slave auction block was removed from the city’s downtown, and the United Daughters of the Confederacy removed its statue from Old Town, Alexandria.
Northam has said the enormous Lee statue would be removed “as soon as possible” and his administration would seek public input about its future. Crews inspected the statue earlier Monday as part of the planning for its removal.
