Here in Chapel Hill, people are talking about moving "Silent Sam," a monument put up in the early twenthieth century to UNC alumni who fought (for the South) during the Civil War. I hope they're reading "The Law and Morality of Building Renaming," (or perhaps this essay on why we shouldn't rename Ruffin Hall) but I'm thinking they're not.
Thanks to Bill Turnier for pointing me to this article.
