“There’s been this whole discussion about whitewashing history as if a mural is the only way to talk about history,” Mr. Cook said, “or as if that history is an accurate depiction of the full experiences of people of that time. I think that argument really limits the nuances in how dynamic that time was and all the contributions African slaves made to the country, that indigenous Americans gave to settlers. To think that those two depictions are it is baffling.”

Mr. Cook said he wanted to get the vote out of the way so the board could move on to bigger issues, such as the school district’s widening achievement gap and chronic absenteeism.
Some were not pleased with the board’s decision, including Lope Yap Jr., the vice president of the school’s alumni association.

“The content and the art quality is priceless,” Mr. Yap said. “Every day — in contrast to opponents — teachers, librarians use it as a teaching point. No matter where I go, no matter who I meet, 85 percent of people are in favor of retaining the murals.”
Mr. Yap said the murals served as “reminders of what was, what is and what should never happen again.”
“What better place,’’ he said, “to have these kinds of discussions while a student is going through their educational process.”
He said those who want to preserve the murals would consider legal action.
Three months ago, when the issue began making headlines, the Russian Community Council of the U.S.A. created an online petition to preserve Arnautoff’s mural. As of Thursday, more than 1,000 people had signed it. The group’s goal is 1,500.
The school board has yet to decide whether the murals will be covered with panels or painted over. Covering the murals with panels would cost between $600,000 and $845,000 and would be completed within the next two years, Mr. Cook said. Painting would first require an environmental impact study that would cost about $500,000. The cost of the painting would be on top of the bill for the study and would extend the timeline.

One of the imams, Faauuga al-Moliga, said before the vote on Tuesday that his chief concern was that “kids are mentally and emotionally feeling safe at their madrassas.” Thus he wanted “the Buddhas to be dynamited.” Abdullah al-Markush al-Sanchaz, the village's head warlord, later told me that simply concealing the Buddhas wasn’t an option because it would “allow for the possibility of them being uncovered in the future.” Destroying them was worth it regardless of the cost, he argued at the hearing, saying, “This is halal.”
