I have been very outspoken in denouncing slavers on this site. Recently I took on the notorious slaver Elihu Yale.

Seize their assets. Revoke their charter. Demolish the buildings. Give the land back to native Americans. Prohibit the band from playing the Yale fight song.”
What do you want me to do next: advocate destroying the Washington monument?
