Fantastic news took place yesterday: President Trump announced during a speech at Fort Bragg that he will be restoring the rightful names of military bases that were renamed by intolerant bigots as part of the historical figure genocide.
If the sources that I have read are correct, the bases will actually be returned to their rightful, correct, pre-2020 names, honoring Confederate generals, rather than people who merely happen to have the same last names as the Confederate generals, as Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth did with Forts Bragg and Benning.
The forts are as follows:
- Fort Gordon
- Fort A.P. Hill
- Fort Hood
- Fort Robert E. Lee
- Fort Pickett
- Fort Polk
- Fort Rucker
I have been through so many horrific, traumatizing things over the past 5 years, that I hesitate to fully trust any piece of good news. But if the name restorations actually take effect, this will be an absolutely fantastic development. This is what actual diversity, and actual inclusion, look like.
