Statue honoring African diaspora replaces Confederate monument at New Orleans art exhibition

The spot where a Robert E. Lee statue once stood in New Orleans is now home to the image of an African deity. The installation is part of “Prospect New Orleans,” an event that features artists from all over the world once every three years. Although exhibitions are usually temporary, that’s changing this time around. Michelle Miller reports.

“CBS Saturday Morning” co-hosts Jeff Glor, Michelle Miller and Dana Jacobson deliver two hours of original reporting and breaking news, as well as profiles of leading figures in culture and the arts.
