The Detroit school board is trying to remove Dr. Ben Carson’s name from a high school that was named in his honor.
This is cancel culture. They are obviously going after Carson because he is a Republican who worked for the Trump administration.
Dozens of people who worked with Carson are standing up for him now.
They wrote a column for FOX News: We worked for Dr. Ben Carson. We know Dr. Ben Carson. Canceling him is just not right.
Education is the gateway to opportunity. It’s the medicine that cures most ails, and it is the means by which we equip our next generations with the tools they need

This is racism. They won't honored a Black man.

Dr. Carson and Justice Thomas are prime examples of what one could become if more effort is put into learning and less time protesting, burning down businesses, and crying it's all whitey's fault after their life ends up in rundown neighborhoods living off government handouts. Go ahead and change the name of the school to some drug addict who died resisting arrest or some gang member who spent his life shooting people.

Democrats are the ultimate racists. They can't allow even one Afro-American to escape the dems 'Great Society' plantation.

So let’s just stop naming things after people or building statues because some people have a hobby of finding something to complain about (as if they themselves are without flaws) and then tirelessly squawking about it.
Even Saint George Floyd murals and statues will be seen as folly by sane people (some now, some in the future).

What a fine role model for the young men and women at that high school, and they want to take it away from them!
The need to make everyone feel like a victim has to be exposed for what it is: a way of keeping others in check by making them feel less and taking away hope. Dr. Carson had some very good mentors - his mom for one - and others too, so he was made to believe in himself and look what he accomplished, and some people who are probably jealous of his accomplishments want him to disappear.

That race has so few high achievers, they need to hang on to what they have.

We should start changing names of schools named after the mulatto resident and all that stuff named after Robert KKK Sheets Byrd. The real racists.

Let’s cancel Dr. Carson, world renowned neurosurgeon, and lift up a sexually perverted, American hating, dope head, lawless athlete as the best Black person in the country. Speaks volumes to young Black children.
Democrat stupidity!

Let's say something that is not and cannot be allowed to be said.
The black man is his own worst enemy.

The message is clear. You n*****s better tow the line. Or else. Naked unabashed racism. They dare do it because they know they will never pay the price. Look at the 0bama.

This decision to change the name of the school is disgusting. Just goes to show how vapid these people are.

I can’t think of a better role model for Detroit school kids than Dr. Carson. A true success story and brilliant man. That’s why he must be canceled. Democrats are determined to keep their thumbs on minorities. Turn them all into Al Sharptons.

They should double down and name another school after his mother, Sonya. Both are role models for everyone to achieve their potential

A black person who actually worked hard against the odds and achieved success is dishonored, but a thug drug abuser, thief and woman abuser like George Floyd is honored with a statue.

One more comment. This is why I have a hard time naming things, buildings, etc. after people. Loyalty comes into play then. . .

Around 20ish years ago I used to paint quite a few Boys and Girls Clubs in the Chicagoland area. We would do this work at night, when the kids and the staff would go home.
One night in a Boys & Girls Club Library in Gary, Indiana I was browsing through the stacks - because I was curious. This was my first introduction to Dr Ben Carson because there were lots & lots of his book and they all look like they have been very well read. He was a role model in the African-American community.
Those books were showing young teenage boys and girls a way of going about life and a way of improving oneself and those around them.
During the Trump Administration I returned to the scene of the B&G Club library - ..... and there were no books authored by Dr Ben Carson and you know the rest.

Twice I have had the opportunity to have a quick casual encounter with Dr. Carson, once as a physician, the other as a politician. He was so kind and gracious, a remarkable man.

I long for the day when this woke crap is gone, people regain their senses and put everything back the way it was before COVID.

It is in their best financial interest to keep black children from achievement.

Now if Carson had been a liberal they would never have come up with this attack on this decent man. Carson is or should be an inspiration to all young blacks in this nation as somebody who got an education and succeeded in his career. But no, this is another example of what Antifa was calling ''Skin folk, not kin folk'' so they don't feel guilt about this.
