Do you know how many statues, monuments, or sacred sites are in your community? Do you know any of their history besides what is on the plaque? Inspired by events in Charlottesville, today's episode of Sprouts will look at other tributes of significance around the United States: The "father of gynecology" in New York City did experimental procedures on black women; a continued movement in Columbus, OH to removed statues of Christopher Columbus; sacred sites threatened by the the Connecticut Transfer Expansion Pipeline (Gas).
