        Trying to erase the past never works...you can't change the past...and trying to remove it, invites it to be recreated with abandon

        It's funny that you somehow construed a name change to "erasing the past".

        Tear it down. Blind respect for hazy symbols of white history is the coda of the smooth brained.

        I get your point, but there is remembering rightly and remembering wrongly. Keeping the name is the latter.
