John Siblon asks: ‘if
Florence Nightingale's commemoration is based on recognition of her work
during the Crimean war , then the same commemoration should apply
to Mary Seacole?’
Yes, of course. However, I also see Arthur’s point
of view that the memorial is an inspiration to today’s many many ‘Ethnic
Minority’ nurses. Who is responsible for the Crimean statues? Should
whoever it is be approached about this omission?
