In two thousand five, a bunch of community activists at Berkeley, California, tried to force the local school board to change the name of Jefferson Elementary School. Berkeley was radical wacko leftist back then, but the idea getting rid of the name Jefferson Elementary was just too extreme even for the liberal school board back then. And now, how times have changed.
Last week, the Berkeley Unified Scruel District Board approved a resolution in supported black Lives Matter, and as a result of the unanimous vote, Jefferson Elementary will get his name changed. Thomas Jefferson is out of there, and a school named for George Washington, Washington Elementary will also get its name changed. Now. Never mind that George Washington was the father of our country, who led America the revolutionary war that changed the world
for the cause of liberty and freedom. Never mind that Washington did what few would do. He gave up power. They wanted to make him king, he said no. Never Mind that Thomas je Person's role in writing the Declaration of Independence, his service as our first Secretary of State, or his own historic presidency. Both these guys were slaveholders, and that is enough reason to stamp out their names. Our history means nothing the leftist. The only thing that
matters to them is erasing it. They don't know that, they really can't
