A statue of President Theodore Roosevelt was removed from outside of a major New York museum on Jan. 19 after officials decided that the way it was structured is racist.
The statue, created by James Earle Fraser, was placed just outside the American Museum of Natural History, located in the Upper West Side neighborhood of Manhattan, in 1940. It depicts Roosevelt astride a horse with a Native American man and an African American man on each side of him.
Officials said the composition of the statue was racist and voted in 2021 to remove it.
