Equestrian statue of Stonewall Jackson

Thomas Jonathan Jackson was a bronze equestrian statue of Confederate general Stonewall Jackson which was located at Courthouse Historic District of Charlottesville, Virginia and installed in 1921. Sculpted by Charles Keck, it was installed in the city during a period of Confederate monument creation in the 1920s. Community organizing in 2016 resulted in the city council's decision to remove the monument and a related Robert E. Lee monument, but a Unite the Right Rally and lawsuits delayed their removals.

In 2021 both statues were removed. The Jackson statue was sent to Los Angeles, where the artist Kara Walker cut the statue into pieces and made them into a new sculpture, Unmanned Drone, presented in the exhibition Monuments. The Jackson monument's plinth was crafted into Love is dangerous by Bethany Collins for the same exhibition.
