Washington, D.C.’s longtime congressional delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton said she wants to have a statue of former President Abraham Lincoln removed from a prominent district park.

Norton said Tuesday she wants the Emancipation Memorial, first erected in 1876, taken down from Lincoln Park. She said that because the statue is on National Parks Service land, she would first work with the agency to see if it can be taken away to a museum without congressional action. She took umbrage with the monument’s “problematic depiction of the fight to achieve emancipation.”
