contextualization of monuments is not needed
 

This is a bad idea.  History is full of good and bad happenings.  Our understanding of those events is always colored by what we know and what we think.  We don't need some government board telling us what to think.  Besides, we know that whatever people think of the civil war or Virginia's colonial past will change.  Facts are what we need.  No opinion.
