    I love Willa Cather's stories and this is a wonderful sculpture by Littleton Alston, a truly gifted artist. That being said, It seems to me that if a sculpture of an African American writer were created by a white artist, there might be some grumblings of protest

    Never heard of her but that's life you cant know everything! I grew up with LHOTP & Laura Ingalls & Mark Twain always into the great English writers like Somerset Maugham, Dickens, Hardy, Shelly, Bront`e, Austen, Doyle, & favorite Frenchman Victor Hugo, I'm just a blue collar guy who loves my moto, truck, hiking boots, & camera & damn upset I never read her. Guess what i'll be doing tomorrow?

    All I can say is not one freaking penny of my tax dollars better have been put towards the making of this marvel or bronze statue!! If I cant afford my own concrete statue, then Congress dont get to pick and choose what statue my money pays for! And to address Nancy in anything is pathetic considering her criminal behavior! IMO follow the freaking money!

      Do you live in Nebraska? Do you pay any taxes in Nebraska? It's paid for by the tax payers in the state. Look to see if any statues in the Hall come from where you live. Then complain to your state representatives about the statue.

      Actually Nancy could have done this 2 years ago. The last step is here. The process starts from the State selection of a new member for Statuary Hall, every State has 2. The statue being produced by the delegation, then sent to DC.
