I am surprised Freeman will keep its name. Douglas Freeman wrote extensive


biographies about Robert E Lee and George Washington. (Freeman's father had fought for the South) Every evening when Freeman left his job as the editor of The Richmond News Leader (the p.m. version of the Richmond Times-Dispatch) he would salute Lee as he negotiated the traffic circle on Monument. While not known as a blatant racist himself, his connection to Lee and Washington should disqualify him for school naming rights moving forward.
