\n A public whipping post that was on display outside of a Delaware courthouse was dismantled Wednesday due to its \u201ctraumatic legacy,\u201d according to a report.<\/p>\n

The eight-foot-tall post had been used outside the Sussex County Courthouse in Georgetown to lash people for crimes until 1952 before the state became the last to abolish the beatings as punishment, news<\/a> station WPVI reported.<\/p>\n

Crews spent more than an hour excavating the standing post to be stored in a Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs facility, according to the report.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is app<\/a>ropriate for an item like this to be preserved in the state\u2019s collections, so that future generations may view it and attempt to understand the full context of its historical significance,\u201d said HCA Director Tim Slavin.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s quite another thing to allow a whipping post to remain in place along a busy public street \u2014 a cold, deadpan display that does not adequately account for the traumatic legacy it represents, and that still reverberates among communities of color in our state.\u201d<\/p>\n

The group said they will engage historians, educators and leaders of the black community to determine how to display the post in a museum setting with proper context, the outlet reported.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
