This statue shows the 26th president on a horse, with a native American man and an African man at his sides. New York Mayor Bill de Blasio says it presents a white man as superior to people of color, and it's unacceptable in this day in age. The museum requested to have the statue moved from the front steps and the city approved the removal. President Trump tweeted Monday asking the museum not to remove the statue.
