There's no room for Columbus Day in Columbus, Ohio. Or for George Washington in George Washington High School.
Theres plans in the works to cover a mural of George Washington from the halls of George Washington High School in San Francisco due to complaints that its offensive and demeaning to Native Americans and African Americans.
The San Francisco school board is expected to decide next week whether to cover the image or paint over it, but theres no plans among top officials to leave the imagery in the open for students to view, according to several Bay Area news reports.

A country cannot survive such fools.
Thank you for pointing out whole truths.
Of course, my cynical self could add something to your revelation, but I’ll save that for another reply!
LOL - as someone already pointed out.
But seriously, regarding not showing slaves.
I can understand that. OTOH:
- then they’ll complain that slaves’re NOT shown, either ignoring their “contributions” and/or their horrid plight in the horrid USA.
I’m coming from the position of “those who don’t learn from history, repeat it.”
If you wipe out our history, good and bad, you’ll have an empty slate to write on and replace it with fake myths.
Communism on the move in commiefornia..
Maybe the President should bomb San Fransicko instead of Iran. Or at least the HQ buildings of the Board of Education there.
For one thing, they could just place fig leaves over the offending parts.
Or they could just touch up the painting a bit to make it less racially diverse.
They could pain Che Guevara's face over George Washington's, or maybe pain Pol Pot's face over the man jumping over the body.
Or they could get the explosives experts who blew up the Bamiyan Valley statues to come to California and blow up the frieze. Maybe they could just blow up the whole school. Might as well. And start over afresh.
There are so many possibilities
He’s not honorable in their history book, so he’s not seen worthy on the wall. Nor is Jesus in the culture. My fault too?
Where is the toilet-flushing section of the San Andreas fault between San Jose and Point Reyes when we desperately need it...
I have seen other GW art that includes equally incorrect material. Washington never grew cotton, nor did any one else in Fairfax County. It is to far north for the growing cycle of the plant. Also until effective ginning machines were developed little of the plant was grown, except on the Sea Islands in Georgia.

Americans need to demand this school stop referring to itself as George Washington High School. Change the name! We don’t need some two bit sewer disgracing the name of the first President of this great country.
