Rhodes Statue Beheaded in South African Anti-Colonialism Protest.

(Bloomberg) -- A statue of a 19th-century imperialist that stands in a memorial park on the slopes of Cape Town's iconic Table Mountain has been decapitated, one of a series of attacks that have been mounted across several countries on symbols of colonial-era rule. The University of Cape Town removed another statue of Rhodes from its main campus in 2015 after a series of student protests, while several other colonial and apartheid-era symbols were also taken down.
