It started with a few tugs at some rope and ended with a splash.For many, the toppling of the Edward Colston statue in Bristol last weekend marked a watershed moment.There’s no doubt that, by his involvement in the transportation of 84,000 men, women and children from Africa to the Americas as slaves, 19,000 of whom died on the journey, the 17th-century merchant caused untold misery.It’s a pain that is acutely felt to this day and led to Colston’s bronze memorial being torn from its plinth at the Black Lives Matter demonstration on Sunday.Residents have been campaigning for years to have the figure removed by the council due to Colston's significant involvement in the slave trade.In the wake of the incident, a website called Topple the
