the old Southwest High School in Fort Worth were the Rebels.

mascot was a Confederate cavalry officer.

large black student body — name and mascot have to go, racist.

Now the school is (or was the Cavaliers)and mascot was dressed as a 17th century English cavalry officer.

I never could figure out why they did that. It cost a lot of money essential for a minor semantic change.

Unbelievable. Sounds a bit strange. I bet that they get razed. Lol.

They were considering taking a jack hammer to a beautiful, 70 year old tile mosaic in the entry way. It is a head of Johnny Rebel.

Last I heard, it was still there but I don't expect it to last long.
