Plan to rename schools

jeudi 8 avril 2021 à 02:00

San Francisco has retracted the plan to rename schools named after heroes that were found to have done some things wrong.

In some of those cases, I know the wrongs were real. Perhaps that was true in all 44 cases. But it is a mistake to judge past heroes by today's values and demand perfection.

Over time, the default views in society change. Views we now consider reprehensible were once held by almost everyone. We don't need to condemn people of the past for not understanding what we understand today.

I have criticized Senator Feinstein for her right-wing positions. In addition, I believe that no government in the US should display the flag of treason and slavery. However, I can understand how an official might not want to let vandalism decide changes in policy, even changes for the better.
