Duke To Rename Building Once Named After Notorious Racist

[EvilCat Breath]

Find the man's descendants and return every donation plus interest.

Bullshit. He owes every Black person that attended Duke on scholarship past, present, and future.

Sorry. You are black and don't count.

I count the lice you naturally attract and they number in the thousands just on your head. So no. The money will not be returned because you are an irrelevant white voice that has no say in the matter.

Do you feel Duke university will be hurt by this move and fewer parents would want to send their kids there now since they have decided to remove this man's name?

Probably not. But it might hurt the school in the long run, as prospective donors might think that their own donations to Duke will be accepted and then after they are deceased they'll be castigated if a future generation decides to repudiate them.

 

[JOSweetHeart]

Not forever...

So then, who does have the right to care? You seem to have pretty much eliminated everyone. How convenient.

In the grand scheme of things, how much does it matter what the school's name is? Changing the name will not change anything else that may need changing about the place, things that you know are way more important.

God bless you always!!!

Duke University changing name of building dedicated to notorious racist

So Duke is taking down the name of a notorious white supremacist from a building following the recommendations of a committee of students and staff. The racist in question is Julian Carr, a prominent industrialist in the tobacco and textile manufacturing business who donated to Duke University and gifted land to set up the Durham Public Library.

All he did that was considered wrong was be a white supremacist, which back then was fairly common -- sure he advocated lynching black people and talked about how he “horse-whipped” a black woman “until her skirts hung in shreds” after she allegedly insulted a “Southern lady.” -- that was all very normal back in those times....

Having that. man's name on a building hurts Duke University.

Removing it is the right thing to do.

Did this name refuse to shake hands with Jesse Owens? Did he conduct sadistic experiments on black men to see how they would die from syphilis?

SJW, when should we start taking down Woodrow Wilson's name? FDR's?

All of them. Destroy the entirety of American history. Then remake it.

How about the worst of them all, Chris Columbus? When will Columbia U be renamed? When will the people start defecated on the statue commemorating him in Columbus Circle?

Kudos to Duke U! Now, onward and upward to Washington D.C. where it’s time to scrub the name of racist dimocrat Richard Russell from the Senate Ofice Building bearing his name. Dickie was a rabid racist who fought LBJ at every turn over his civil rights legislation. He apparently didn’t buy into Lyndon’s, “We’ll have the nigras voting democrat for the next 200 years” rationale for the Civil Rights Act.

Columbus was a terrible person.

Why don't New Yorkers agree? Why is his statue on West 59th Street still standing?

Why isn't Obama torching his diploma from Columbia, name after the famous Italian?

Perhaps in time those things will change. This is about Duke, not Columbia.

This is good news.

Yes.....and I imagine you would also support closing Yale university for the same reason...Elihu Yale actually engaged in the slave trade.....as this statue must go, so must Yale University......

Elihu Yale - Wikipedia

The records of this period mention a flourishing slave trade in Madras, a trade in which Yale participated and from which he profited. He enforced a law that at least ten slaves should be carried on every ship bound for Europe. In his capacity as judge he also on several occasions sentenced so-called "black criminals" to whipping and enslavement.

So we now must close Yale University because of the racist past of it's founder....

Will they also take down every painting and statue of Lyndon Banes Johnson...a member of the Texas KKK? A man who opposed every Civil Rights act until the final ones when the Civil Rights fight was over, and who also fought against anti-lynching laws?

Hopefully prospective donors don't opine about lynching anyone -- if they can manage that, I think their donations will be safe....

n Tuesday, October 22, 2002, Bill Clinton traveled to Fayetteville, Arkansas to honor the life of the late Arkansas senator, J. William Fulbright by dedicating a seven-foot-tall bronze statue of the man.

#ad#According to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, “The $100,000 sculpture is the final [expenditure] of an $850,000 fundraising campaign for a project to honor Fulbright. The $750,000 fountain was dedicated October 24, 1998.”

Among other things, Clinton said, “If [Fulbright] were here today, I’m sure he would caution us not to be too utopian in our expectations, but rather utopian in our values and vision.”

And back on May 5, 1993, in what the Washington Post characterized as a “… moving 88th birthday ceremony for former senator William Fulbright, President Clinton last night bestowed the Presidential Medal of Freedom on the man he described as a visionary humanitarian, a steadfast supporter of the values of education, and ‘my mentor.’” Clinton added, “It doesn’t take long to live a life. He made the best of his, and helped us to have a better chance to make the best of ours.…The American political system produced this remarkable man, and my state did, and I’m real proud of it.”

Of course, the man Clinton was praising, who he called his “mentor,” who supposedly embraced utopian values and made the world a better place for everyone, was also a rabid segregationist.


In 1956, Fulbright was one of 19 senators who issued a statement entitled the “Southern Manifesto.” This document condemned the 1954 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education. Its signers stated, among other things, that “We commend the motives of those States which have declared the intention to resist forced integration by any lawful means.” They stated further, “We pledge ourselves to use all lawful means to bring about reversal of this decision which is contrary to the Constitution and to prevent the use of force in its implementation.”

Of course, in 1957, the first serious challenge to Brown occurred in Fulbright’s backyard. Fulbright’s Democrat colleague, Arkansas Governor Orval Faubus (another early Clinton backer) ordered the National Guard to surround Central High School in Little Rock to prevent nine black students from attending the school. President Dwight Eisenhower dispatched the 101st Airborne Division to protect these teenagers and enforce the Supreme Court’s decision.

Fulbright later voted against the 1964 Civil Rights Act. He voted against the 1965 Voting Rights Act. And he did so because he believed in separating the races — in schools and other public places. He was a segregationist, heart and soul.

It wont hurt Duke in the long run. The people donating to Duke presently arent publicly racist inbreds. Duke did the right thing by removing this animals name of their building.
