Learn from History, but you cannot rewrite it. Some of you house wives mine as well be modern slave owners.. The lady that cleans your house is getting paid pennies on the dollar. The guy that mows your lawn is getting less than that.
Yes the Jefferson cup should be renamed because he was RACIST! They should call it the wonderful cup so everyone knows how wonderful each and all of our special children are.d

did you really just say they don't have an opinion on their sports club being named after the confederate army leader and george washington's slave plantation?
I can read so yes that appears to be exactly what was said. Standing by to translate for you more due to your literacy challenges.

Lee High School in Faifax unanimously voted to change the name (source at bottom). My question is: should Lee Mount Vernon Sports Club change their name? Isn't it time to reflect the general sentiment of its members? It doesn't seem very appropriate for a youth sports club to be named after the Confederate General. To be honest, I'm not sure if Mount Vernon should be in the name either given its historical usage as a plantation. I am supportive of a name change. Perhaps something more community based like we were told is the most important thing during the townhall?
How about "Rose Hill Sports Club"?
