Tubman Statue to Be Included in National Garden of American Heroes

SHARE NOW

A statue of Harriet Tubman will soon be included in the proposed National Garden of American Heroes.

President Donald Trump made the announcement on Thursday at a White House event celebrating Black History Month. Once complete, the National Garden on the grounds of the National Mall in Washington, D.C., will be a sculpture garden honoring great figures of America’s history.

Other proposed statues include Muhammad Ali, Jackie Robinson, Billie Holiday, Aretha Franklin, Coretta Scott King, and Frederick Douglass.

The fact that a defendant has been charged with a crime is merely an accusation and the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
