You’d be surprised how any iconic ‘Bastions of liberalism’ were named after some pretty controversial figures. It would be fun to insist on renaming universities like Stanford, Berkeley, and Harvard.....using the same historical arguments the political left uses for renaming things. I personally think it’s just history....good, bad, and indifferent depending on the case and should be left alone...., but it’s never going to stop until the political right plays the same game. If you think about it....there’s probably a legit reason for renaming any building, bridge, or street. Show me a building or a bridge and within a few hours I bet I could come up with a reason why it should be renamed. Ha!!!
