Confederadication: Name That School. Monumentless Avenue in Sad R., A New Home After the Dead of the Night.

NOVEMBER 10, 2020

**  Abilene ISD (Independent School District) asks community to rank names  for Confederate schools.  (Texas.  These are schools with Confederate names that are going to be changed.  They have a list of 12 names to replace the names of Lee, Jackson and Johnston schools.  I imagine these are all black names.  Hopefully some are not of activists but are of blacks who have succeeded on their own.)

**  Richmond's Confederate Avenue now Laburnum Park Boulevard after city council renaming.  (Sad R.  I also would recommend that the name of Monument Avenue be changed to something other than a black name.  Perhaps Monumentless Avenue.  And, there should be no statues of anybody along it.  Move the Arthur Ashe statue somewhere else and the art museum's statue across the street.)

**  Fairfax Confederate statues removed,  set to be relocated.  (Virginia.  The John Quincy Marr Monument will go to the Stuart Mosby Historical Society and the  two cannons to the Manassas National Battlefield  Park.  Glad they found new places for the items.  Again, they were removed during the dead of the night.  Something about statue removals at night, you know.)
