What's in a Name? The Dispute over Renaming U.S. Army Bases
Recent protests over racial issues have rekindled efforts to rename the 10 U.S. Army bases that honor officers of the Confederate States Army, plus one named after a local plantation. Please join the Mershon Center for a virtual conversation about the background of the people for whom these bases are named, the Jim Crow-era politics that influenced their creation, and guidelines for selection of potential replacements.
