And this is the OPEN THREAD for right now . . .
Let's put this in perspective with JC Nichols, he didn't create segregation he just did what everybody else was doing at that time. As much as this pains me I must agree with mayor bullhorn on this (but the jury is still out with him) keep the name because he did more good than bad plus you can use this as a teaching moment too
