    Default NJ district to remove Woodrow Wilson’s name from high school

    NJ district to remove Woodrow Wilson’s name from high school

    Nov 28, 2021

    A New Jersey school district is planning to rename one of its schools named after former President Woodrow Wilson due to what critics say is a legacy of racism.

    The Camden school district will rename 90-year-old Woodrow Wilson High School after voting on the measure nearly 18 months ago, NJ.com reported.

    The campaign for change began with a petition on Change.org in 2019 before gaining support last summer after George Floyd was murdered by Minneapolis police, spurring protests nationwide.

    I think Woodrow Wilson was one of our top 5 worst presidents (Lincoln, FDR, Wilson, Johnson, Nixon in that order... Biden is certainly looking to take Nixon's place.) But I would never ask that his name be removed from a school or his statue be taken down. It's a slippery slope where the point of the 'woke mob' is not actually about the individual target but rather American history in general.

    You can find shit about just about any historical figure to want to 'cancel' them. Especially since the norms of today are different from the past.

    I'm not surprised. Word has it that "Che Guevara Reeducation Camp" is the replacement name.
