[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]None of those names are generic. Langley was the ancestral Lee family estate in Shropshire. McLean and Herndon HS are named after locations that in turn were named after white men. [/quote] They are "generic" in that no one connects them with the people who had the names to start with. The schools have names of people=---but are named after people. You can't make that connection? Do you really think they named Langley High after the "ancestral Lee estate in Shropshire" ? Please. Yes, Herndon is a town-I agree with that. But, the school does not honor a man and neither does McLean. [/quote] The schools were not named after those people. Yes, the towns were--but the schools do not honor them. The descendants of John Roll McLean and William Lewis Herndon might disagree with you.[/quote][/quote]
