Princeton University Has Dropped Woodrow Wilson's Name From Its School Due To His Racist Views

The School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey.

The university's board of trustees voted to change the names Friday, after the trustees concluded that Wilson's"racist thinking and policies make him an inappropriate namesake for a school or college whose scholars, students, and alumni must stand firmly against racism in all its forms."

As they should

Inciting anger over the way someone thought over 100 years ago does NO GOOD for anyone! There have been mistakes in our past as well as good, but causing trouble is never productive!

YOU CANNOT CHANGE HISTORY! It is really inane to try to change something over 100 years ago, we have learned much since then, things change and we learn, but bringing up past mistakes is futile and will do NO GOOD.

I wonder how this will affect the National Park Service since Wilson started it.

With these reprobates out of the lineup to glory, maybe women and people of color can finally get some recognition for our contributions.

Excellent, Woodrow Wilson was no saint. Interesting how weak willed university officials change their tune when the mass populous rise up. Power to the people.

Yale University was named for Elihu Yale. Not just a man who had slaves. An actual slave trader. I call on Yale to change it’s name immediately and strip the name of Yale from every building, piece of paper, and merchandise. Otherwise, they hate black people. CancelYale

Believe me , nobody is going to be safe in this “liberal “ purge .

Views and actions such as 'overseeing of the resegregation of multiple agencies of the federal government, which had been surprisingly integrated as a result of Reconstruction decades earlier'
