Statues all challenge the audience to seek understanding of underrepresented stories and celebrate the individuals to the communities that have broken beyond the surface of stereotypes. The purpose is to encourage audiences to have conversations that promote unity and finally see to celebrate historically oppressed communities that faced adversity in all aspects of life. New York City, a home to the world, can not be a more perfect place to host these statues by telling the stories of the people who have lived and influenced the rich cultural tapestry of this city.
