Biden Dept. of Interior moves to remove 'derogatory' names from federal lands
Fox News
The Biden administration has begun the process of replacing the names of some of the nation’s federal lands that have been deemed “derogatory.”
"Racist terms have no place in our vernacular or on our federal lands. Our nation’s lands and waters should be places to celebrate the outdoors and our shared cultural heritage – not to perpetuate the legacies of oppression," Haaland said. "Today’s actions will accelerate an important process to reconcile derogatory place names and mark a significant step in honoring the ancestors who have stewarded our lands since time immemorial."
