Silent Sam, the Confederate monument at UNC-Chapel Hill, was doused with blood and red ink by a protester Monday, in a defiant act that was broadcast on Facebook Live.

In an email to the media, Maya Little took responsibility for defacing the statue, which has been at the center of intensifying protests during this academic year. Little said she has been an organizer for the Silent Sam Sit-In since September. The Move Silent Sam group identified her as a doctoral student in UNC’s history department.

In the letter, directed at UNC Chancellor Carol Folt, Little said she was attempting to add context to the statue in her own way.

Doesn’t take much cognitive ability to know what should happen to that POS campus rent-a-cop who stood and permitted the commission of a common-law crime against property.
