CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA - APRIL 09: Students cheer after the Cecil Rhodes statue was removed from the University of Cape Town on April 9, 2015 in Cape Town, South Africa. The statue of British colonialist Cecil John Rhodes was removed from the University of Cape Town as a result of a month long protest by students citing the statue "great symbolic power" which glorified someone "who exploited black labour and stole land from indigenous people".
