Many have already heard about the decision of the Berkeley School Board to rename the Thomas Jefferson Elementary school because "Jefferson owned slaves". So what name did they pick? Sequoia!
There is a little problem with that name however. As a some have pointed out:
Some community members have pointed out that under Chief Sequoia's leadership in the early 19th century, the Cherokee nation owned more than 1,500 black slaves. A spokesman for the Berkeley Unified School District, Mark Coplan, acknowledged that Chief Sequoia "presumably owned slaves and was rather barbaric,"
So as the head doofuss freely admits, Chief Sequoia was a worse slave holder than Jefferson! Yet change they will.
Which just goes to show that when the loony loopy luddite left gets on its horse over an issue, the facts never do stand in their way.
