Medgar Evers’ family fights efforts to strip his name from Navy vessel www.rawstory.com/medgar-evers...
Good, it's disgraceful #Krasnov & SecDef Kegstand are trying to changes these ships names and brining back the confederate traitors names to our bases. How many bases are named after Benedict Arnold? And he never killed other Americans, much less hundreds of thousands.
I just watched this movie this morning!
They are attempting to erase Medgar Evers from history because their legacy will never even approach his.
RACISM is behind the efforts to rename certain US Navy ships...
As the should. Trumpification of our American heritage is disgusting. 47 needs to leave us and move to Turkey or Russia where you are actually liked.
Hungary or Argentina are also good options.
he's got a lover in north korea, or so he said.
Isn’t it considered bad luck to rename a war ship?
Why the hell is this even happening????
This renaming historically relevant ICONS is just pathetic pandering to the uneducated racists, fascists not capable of honestly recognizing the contributions made to our country. Equality isn’t picking and choosing, it’s a right guaranteed to all.
More shame for our country
Waiting for TACO administration to name the newest battleship… USS SS….
I suppose Trump has a confederate general he wants to change the name to.
Trump and his followers are evil incarnate! They diminish America on a daily basis.
Your defense minister is a homophobic racist.
It's telling that things that do not concern the despot really chap the his porcine ass ... like names of ships, military bases, monuments, oceans, countries, etc. He's the world's worst yenta and an extremely dangerous one.
I would sue them. This Pete hegseth is a pos and needs to go.
Deplorable to be erasing our history!
A goddamned disgrace! Nobody deserves the honor more than Medgar Evers
I stand with the Evers family
This is so WRONG! Mr. Evers was a good man. He served our country in the Army and was among those who landed on the beaches of Normandy during D-Day and WWII. Fought for civil rights in the '50s and '60s and was murdered as a result of those efforts. Continue to honor this brave man!
Meghan Mccain, your dads name on a ship is probably next.
Medgar Evers' was murdered because of his work during the Civil Rights movement registering black people to vote, among other things. His name on a vessel of war and murder, may not be the best way to honor him. I'm certain the black community can thi k of better ways to honor his legacy.
I'm sure I'd defer to his family on this one.
donald trump is such a racist ahole as are the entire republican held congress.
