Clayton English flips a walk through D.C. into pure comedy gold as he roasts the city’s statues and what they say about culture, race, and respect. Spotting the Taras Shevchenko monument, he clowns the pose, the flowers left behind, and even questions how this Ukrainian poet got a statue before Sojourner Truth. The rant grows into something bigger: why do Black icons keep getting statues that look nothing like them? From a Tupac memorial that could pass for a blues singer to a Richard Pryor statue that looks more like Marlon Wayans, Clayton shines light on a serious issue with his trademark wit. Between the chains, marble figures, and D.C.’s Gothic buildings that feel haunted, he drops a comedic but honest reflection on how America honors — and often fails — its heroes.
