What I cannot quite fathom is why leave up symbolism to slavery in this day and age, confederate flags still being left up etc.

When slavery was abolished all known representation to such a thing should have been removed.

In Germany, it is illegal to do the Nazi Salute, if ones own country, in which the salute originated, can outright ban it and make it a criminal offense, then it should be illegal across the world, only problem in the U.S is the first Amendment.
