It is being completely ignored by the mainstream media, but #CancelYale is trending on Twitter. Why?
Because Yale was named after an ACTUAL slave trader. Elihu Yale not only owned slaves, he made his money trading slaves.
So far the left is ignoring it, but given the environment, I expect it to get traction. Andy why not? If we're renaming military bases named after Confederates, why not a university named after a slave trader?
Let's see the left twist itself into knots when one of its elite institutions is attacked.

From now on, instead of typing the name of that school in New Haven, CT that was named after a slave trader, they should type 4 black boxes as penance for attending such a racists institution.

Of the fact Georgetown University stabilized its finances by selling 272 slaves. The "woke" Left must have wondered what happened.... 😑🙄
