War on History Advances on Dixie Highway
Liberals seized on the Charleston church shooting in 2015 as a pretext to launch a war of eradication against the South as a historical, cultural, and political entity (e.g., here, here, and here). This campaign will not be finished so long as any acknowledgment of the South survives. The Dixie Highway could be next on the hit list:
The name Dixie harkens back to an era that glorified slavery and white supremacy, says 22-year-old Hallandale Beach Vice Mayor Sabrina Javellana. Her fellow city commissioners agree, approving a resolution in early December urging Broward commissioners to take up the cause [of renaming Dixie Highway].
Broward Mayor Dale Holness says it’s an idea worth exploring…
Javellana pitched the idea after learning of an effort by Miami-Dade Commissioner Dennis Moss to rename Dixie Highway for Harriet Tubman, an escaped slave who helped lead others to freedom before the Civil War.
The change is already underway elsewhere:
In Riviera Beach, a portion of Dixie Highway is now known as President Barack Obama Highway, Javellana noted.
Sabrina isn’t the first in Florida to take up the cause:
In 2017, State Rep. Shevrin Jones, D-Hollywood, urged that cities throughout Florida rename their stretches of Dixie Highway.
“The name has divided our country,” he said at the time. “There should be no recognition of it. It does not represent who we are…”
“Who we are” — a well-worn phrase in leftist demagoguery — is to be determined by liberal apparatchiks. Anything that does not comply with their conception of “who we are” will be erased.
Already Dixie Peak in Phoenix has been renamed “Two Bit Peak.” Its name did not reflect who we are. The mountain is near better-known Squaw Peak, which is now officially named “Piestewa Peak,” because the word “squaw” is a thought crime, like the word “Dixie.”
They will come after Dixie beer any day now. After that has been renamed Malcolm X beer, they will discover that the nation’s capital is named after a Southern slaveowner and demand that it be renamed Sharpton, DC.
On a tip from Lyle.
