Put them in a museum where you teach people that these figures fought for evil. Repurpose them.
Im very conservative, slavery was bad, history is important. If someone is only known for evil deeds, take their statue down. If we took down every statue of a man who sinned we wouldn’t have any history. Not saying its justified tho, just that its deeper

I think they could find a way to frame it “look what the southern strategy tried to preserve, this is how they portrayed people” and made people take a hard look at it right in front of them, but platform it in a way the overwhelming humanity of the victims of slavery shines through the disguise of propaganda
