  This. I understand the need to memorialize but it seems insensitive to sink millions into remembering the dead when that money could be used to help the living. If they are important then we should make sure to teach their history to younger generations, not build a statue many will never see. Malcolm Gadwell did a great episode these kind of situations and the dark reality of how those funds could be better implemented
context: Seneca Scott, cousin of Scott King, described it as a “masturbatory metal homage”
  “If you can look at it from all angles, and it’s probably two people hugging each other, it’s four hands. It’s not the missing heads that’s the atrocity that other people clamp onto that; it’s a stump that looked like a penis. That’s a joke,” Scott told CNN.
  
  The first view I saw, it looked like a woman’s thighs and a man was… ahem. Then it looked like a penis from another angle. Just awful. >
  
  The first view I saw of it looked like two arms holding up the biggest butt log in history. >

  Bono: BIT-TY!! >
  
  I’ll be honest it isn’t my taste, the MLK granite head in DC is much better. >
  
  The head that is almost his whole body? >
  
  "excuse me, sir. you're sitting on my body, which is also my face" >

  It's like a five-dimensional creature eating itself.
  
  Embrace Boston, a nonprofit organization that works toward racial and economic justice and is a part of the Boston Foundation, helped provide resources and $10.5 million in funds, including a maintenance fund, for “The Embrace” and the Freedom Plaza. >
  
  Dear god, think how far 10 mil could go toward education or helping homeless people or providing services to the addicted. This makes me pretty sick. It's both ugly and incomprehensible. Even a stick figure lets you know what it is.
