“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
George Washington's own church is removing a plaque in his honor because he owned slaves
President George Washington attended the Christ Church in Alexandria for more than 20 years and bought one of its pews in 1773 when it opened
A stone plaque that reads 'In memory of George Washington' is displayed on the left side of the altar, but will be taken down
A plaque honoring confederate leader Robert E. Lee will also be removed
The plaques will come down next summer but its unclear where they will head
