About That Woke San Francisco School District

Some of the proposed school name might surprise you.

Abraham Lincoln High School

George Washington High School

Dianne Feinstein Elementary

Roosevelt Middle School

Jefferson Elementary

Alamo Elementary

Lincoln was "listed" because of his treatment of Indians.  Washington and Jefferson because they were slaveowners. Feinstein because, as mayor, she ordered a Confederate flag replaced after an early form of BLM destroyed one in a public display of flags of the United States.

One organization says that  there are more than 240 schools across the U.S. named for a Confederate leader.

San Francisco Goes Whole Hog Woke and Cancel Culture

From the November 30, 2020, Los Angeles Times "San Francisco may rename  42 schools, including  Lincoln Highand  Dianne Feinstein Elementary" by Faith E. Pinho.

There were 42 schools recommended for renaming.  For those of you counting, that's one third of their schools.

Some of the school's namesakes have already come under fire, including  California  missionary Father  Junipero  Serra and "Star-Spangled Banner" author Francis Scott Key.

Others, like  Abraham Lincoln and Senator  Dianne Feinstein, well, maybe the reasons are not so obvious.

Even the storied  magnet school Lowell High is on the last.  Its namesake  James Russell  Lowell was an abolitionist (Okay) but his writings.
