It is rank hypocrisy to keep the building donated by the slave owner but change the name. If they are so indignant, they need to return the building to his heirs.
If they had their way it’d be converted to a battered women’s shelter only for people of color and be renamed for Obama.
If this building was located south of the Mason-Dixon line, the rabble would be demanding the structure be torn down. /s
My husbands ancestors donated the land where Harvard currently resides. I’m sure many in the family would appreciate payment especially after many ancestors were killed in the witch trials and Concord.
