Woodrow Wilson High School in Portland to be named Ida B. Wells-Barnett High School.

So they need new colors, mascot school song, etc.

So Evergreen Tree is selected. Seems pretty safe.

But Nooo. Trees are racist. They are tied forever to lynching.

MLB moves All Star Game out of Georgia. Caves to Xiden and the mob.

Well I guess I will not be watching MLB this year. Too bad as with my shots I was thinking about buying tickets and going in person.

I guess I can go to the range instead.

Add Bomber Harris to that list.

Can Harry Truman and Curtis LeMay be far behind?

Teddy Roosevelt bites the dust. Not even one vote to keep his statue in New York City Museum of Natural History.

BTW Teddy started the National Park system for which we should be eternally grateful.

As I have long said, Cancel Culture isn't about racism. It's about canceling our culture in tradition of Mao. Wiping out our history is the plan. This action proof.

I wonder if we'll need a separate thread about the Olympics. I sure hope not. But...

The women's 3rd place hammer thrower said, "I was irritated, to be honest," that the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials yesterday in Eugene, OR, didn't cancel the National Anthem.

"I was thinking about what I should do," said Gwen Berry. "Eventually I stayed there and I swayed, I put my shirt over my head. It was real disrespectful."

To be clear, what she thinks was disrespectful was the playing of the National Anthem. Not her turning her back to the flag and putting a black T-shirt over her head. That was what she decided was the proper way for her to respond. The women taking the podium were handed a small bouquet of flowers and a small U.S. flag. Berry refused the to take a flag.

Image

"The anthem doesn't speak for me. It never has. My purpose and my mission is bigger than sports," she continued. "I'm here to represent those ... who died due to systemic racism. That's the important part. That's why I'm going. That's why I'm here today."

Funny that U.S. Olympic Committee who gets all its funding from the tax payers and from tax-payer donations--and, heck, all the rest of us and the rest of the world, for that matter--thought that you were going to Tokyo to compete as a member of Team USA. Not Team Gwendolyn Berry.

A July 2 update to the Gwen Berry story:

Olympian Gwen Berry's problematic tweets unearthed amid anthem uproar
https://www.foxnews.com/sports/olympian ... hem-uproar

This lovely human who is slated--as of now--to represent the United States of America at the Olympics in Japan, in past tweets made jokes about gang rape, mocked Mexicans, Asians, and white people, and said she would like to stomp a "lil white boy."

But none of that is racist, of course.
Her demonstration led to calls from conservative voices for her to step aside. Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, and Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., have been among the loudest voices.
I would very much like to see her removed from the U.S. Team.

University of Wisconsin-Madison removes massive rock from campus after 'racism' claims

https://www.foxnews.com/us/racist-rock- ... in-madison

A large Boulder was removed from the Campus where it has been for over 100 years. Placed there to honor the University President who was a geologist.

The Boulder was considered racist.

There may be geologists here who can correct me, but I believe they are called drop stones. Very large boulders are placed in odd spots by a melting glacier.

The black student union leadership said the stone was a reminder of the racist history because one time, in 1925, a newspaper that was not affiliated with the school at all stated in a headline about the stone "Dig up N---ehead". That was the only time the stone was referred to in that manner as far as anyone can tell.

Why do I think that some person happened to come across the headline and told the student about it (I doubt the students would have found it without help)? The students decided to flex their muscles just to see what would happen and the University reflexively bent their knee and caved in. There is no way anyone in the school today could have been offended or considered the stone a racist reminder of the school's history. This had to be a test and the school lost.

I am assuming no one in the history department told the school administrators anything about the etymology of the word "Danegeld" or of the phrase "Millions for defense, not a penny for tribute."
