[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Woodson alum and a Woodson parent. W.T. should be dropped. Had no clue when I went there about his segregationist history. Not sure about CG yet but he has a lot of schools named after him across the country. Think some alums will push back. Not sure it is ever referred to it now but back in the day, WTW was a thing. [/quote] I'm with you. There is no reason to keep his name on the school in the 21st century, after he tried to prevent Black students from entering segregated schools. A small selection of his views are on the FCPS webpages. (shudder) https://www.fcps.edu/about-fcps/history/records/desegregation/writings[/quote]
