EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Students say Thomas Jefferson statue should be removed from Mizzou campus

The University of Missouri faced calls earlier in 2020 to remove Thomas Jefferson’s statue from the Columbia, Missouri campus. Amid nationwide protests and riots, the university administration moved to install a $20,000 acrylic case to protect a separate on-campus monument, Jefferson’s original tombstone, from would-be violent demonstrators. 

Given the ongoing controversy surrounding both landmarks, Campus Reform asked students whether they support calls to remove the Thomas Jefferson statue.
