Acclaimed historians are hitting out at a chairman in charge of renaming San Francisco schools after he refused to consult them during the decision-making process.
Earlier this week, the San Francisco Board of Education voted 6-1 to strip 44 public schools of their current monikers because they honor ‘racist’ figures from American history.
Schools named after politicians including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln are now set to be rebranded in the coming months.
