Surprise: Democrats Want To Rename Russell Senate Building
Remember, it was just a few statues of Confederates. The Woke/Cancel Culture renaming of stuff may have chilled for a bit, but, they will never give up on this
Democrat calls for renaming of Russell Senate Office Building
Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) is urging senators to rename the Russell Senate Office Building on Capitol Hill because of former Sen. Richard Russell’s history of opposing civil rights and avowing white supremacy.
“Throughout his career, Senator Russell engaged in constant lobbying on behalf of opponents to Civil Rights,” Green wrote in a letter to senators Thursday about the Georgia Democrat who died in 1971. “Perhaps most telling of his beliefs, during a lengthy filibuster against anti-lynching legislation, Senator Russell professed a willingness to uphold ‘white supremacy in the social, economic, and political life of our state.’”
“His public assertions, including ones that declared America ‘a white man’s country’ and his outspoken opposition to ‘political and social equality with the Negro,’ further underscored his divisive ideology,” Green added.
Russell, who was Georgia’s governor from 1931-33, held his Senate seat for nearly four decades until his death.
Green asked senators to revert to using the name “Old Senate Office Building” for the structure built in the early 1900s that 33 senators and five committees currently occupy. It was named in honor of Russell the year after he died.
So, um, will Green call for all the things named of Robert “Sheets” Byrd be renamed? A lot of these receive federal money.
Oh, and you know what is missing from Green’s letter? That Russell was, in fact, a Democrat. Surprise!
