School Planning On Removing Ben Carson's Name

The Detroit school board has voted 6-1 to rename a school that was named in honor of neurosurgeon Ben Carson. Benjamin Carson High School of Science and Medicine will soon be renamed. The board feels that because of Mr. Carson's connection with President Trump, the school is not looked at favorably. One board member stated that "the residents do not support Trump", and that having Carson's name on the school is , "synonymous with having Trump’s name on our school in blackface.”

Do you think this is the right move? Is this fair? Please post your comments.
