Didn’t the Texas town of White Settlement (near Ft. Worth) recently decide to change it’s name because too many people now assumed they were racists?

They had an election a few years ago, and they overwhelmingly voted to keep the name.

White City, Florida settled by the Danes, named their city that, because it was”ALL WHITE”.
Todays PC books say< wrongly” because it was the first with electric lights on city roads. All bulls—t!
I own a book written in 1933, by workers for WPA, Federal Government; called “A Guide to Florida. It covers all the 1933 and before as a travelogue!
1933 we were a racist country.
