Answer:
The Ottoman Turks were determined to capture Constantinople. Their nickname for it was the 'Golden Apple', the ultimate prize.
Explanation:
The Ottoman Turks were determined to capture Constantinople. Their nickname for it was the ‘Golden Apple’, the ultimate prize. Like New York, the ‘Big Apple’ of our times, Constantinople, the Golden Apple, was seen at the time as the ultimate metropolis, the ultimate object of desire. Given all this, it was clear that eventually, the city must fall, and the real wonder is how long it had held out, given its deeply weakened state.
Statues are usually made to honor or commemorate a person/event. By making a confederate statue, one is honoring the confederacy; that would mean that that person is also honoring the fight to keep slavery. Slavery is absolutely NOT something that should be honored. In the present day, Black people, as well as POCs in general, have the same rights as you and me. However, they still face racism, and keeping confederate statues does nothing to help that; if anything, they show support for racism. All confederate statues should be taken down.
(Just IMO, you don’t need to write this, having a confederate flag is almost as bad as having a swastika honestly. Both are supporting horrid events.)
