Not trying to see racism everywhere, but do you think it could have something to do with this triumph? It is one of the newest and most prominent buildings you see as you enter dc on 14th street, right after the Egyptian monolith, providing contrast to all the Greco-roman stuff. It is like a breath of fresh air every time I see it. When the botanical garden did an exhibit of miniature mall buildings made out of plant materials, mostly sticks, all the other buildings looked so cool with their organic makeover. This one looked...pretty much the same. Already so cool. https://uploads.disquscdn.c...
Trump's casinos and apartments seem to be modeled on the style of French King Louis the Fifteenth, Louis Quinze in French, pronounced 'looie cans'. Spittoons.
Yes, the National Museum of African American History and Culture, a federal building, opened 2016, designed to "demonstrate an understanding of the African-American experience." the tiers were inspired by Yoruban crowns. Just wondering if the proposed order is intended to make sure we only honor European roots from now on.

Also, heh-heh-heh-heh, “erected.”

I guess The Fountainhead is like the Bible, you can get use it to justify whatever you want.
Hands too small, probably can't even reach an octave.

quatorze, actually. quinze is the fifteenth louis.
and if so, why would it be racist? in san francisco, we have a museum of the african diaspora. is this the d.c. equivalent?
