Answer:
It will be correct to say that the civil rights of African Americans couldn't have been a reality without the illustrious effort and contribution of great figures like Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt. These renowned civil right activists represented the voices of the oppressed African Americans at a time when racism and segregation was the order of the day. They advocated for equality of all races, and abolition of discrimination. They initiated programs that promoted equality of Americans and defended the cause of African Americans. Eleanor Roosevelt advocated for the rights of black women also. She also opposed bills that were discriminatory to African Americans.
The public school students' <em>silent</em> protest, by using <em>symbols</em>, in the form of armbands, during school time, cost the students a suspension, because it was considered a <em>violation of a school rule</em>.

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.)
