Was the street named in honor or just given a name? There is a difference.

It was named confederate drive because it led to the confederate cemetery. It doesn't anymore. The Tad Pad did away with that. The only thing it leads to now is the Chapel which is what it will be called.

What's left that could possibly be offensive? They need to round up a list and just get everything changed asap. It's really tiring reading these stories year after year.

ETA: Oh and I'm indifferent to the changes. I just want to get it done and move on.
