I can tell you, since I used to live in that area. Nearly everyone around where she lives has called it Denali for as long as they lived.
I read an article the other day that stated the name was not actually opposed up until some activists got hold of the issue some 40 years ago and turned it into one.
Do you think any other government that might replace us down the road would have second thoughts naming places as they saw fit?
Should we start reverting all the places we have renamed in the United States?
Having the third largest National Park known as Denali seems to be honoring that name. It’s not like the name was erased from society or anything.
I’m just stating a fact. I don’t know why Sarah saw it the way she did, and to say otherwise wouldn’t be fair to her.
