ALL of the "confederate named" schools, streets, etc., the inclusion of the rebel flag on state flags, etc., were done as nods to and in support of segregation, Jim Crown, and not-subtle racial superiority bullshit. Every. Single. One.
These weren't things that were done in 1862, and just stayed around after the war. They weren't done after some thoughtful discussion of the pros and cons of a state's history and involvement in the Civil War. Every last one of them was in response to efforts to give black people equal status and rights in our society, and to send a message of "boy, you best not forget who's really in charge around here." In that respect, every confederate monument, name, and the like is the equivalent of a burning klan cross.
If you support the names, or re-naming, that's what you are: a giant, racist piece of shit. But, have no fear....being a giant, racist piece of shit ALSO means that you are a great American, and totally in favor by the ruling regime in most states and nationwide. So, hooray for you. The pieces of shit -- including you -- have won. Yay, shit!
