Pastor Wants Presidents’ Names Removed From Washington, Jackson Parks Over Ties To Slavery

Quote
CHICAGO (CBS) — A Chicago pastor has asked the Emanuel administration to remove the names of two presidents who owned slaves from parks on the South Side, saying the city should not honor slave owners in black communities.

A bronze statue of George Washington on horseback stands at the corner of 51st and King Drive, at the northwest entrance to Washington Park.

Bishop James Dukes, pastor of Liberation Christian Center, said he wants the statue gone, and he wants George Washington’s name removed from the park.

Where does this end. Bishop James Dukes's Facebook post.

Why not tear down Mahatma Gandhi statues? He was a racist and pro-Nazis.

Being curious, I looked into this church a bit. It does not have a website, which kind of suggests it's not especially large. A local resource says it's Pentecostal. I C & P'ed the address for the church and went to Google Maps Satellite view. The capture was dated 9/2016. The building looks possibly abandoned. There's a grass lot to the left of it, and the lot to the right is a fenced-off construction site - it looks like a concrete pad - with a porta-can next to the "church building". Behind the "church building" is an alley. The only parking is on the street.

What I'm suggesting is that this church may exist, but it's influence is pretty minimal. And the pastor looks more like a noise maker than a significant leader in his community. I could be wrong, but it looks like the MSM are inflating his significance or have credulously taken him as significant.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

It's simple. It doesn't end. Ever. There is no end game to this and never will be. The left is like a big stupid dog that will eat itself to death if not made to stop.

There needs to be a whole lot of renaming to do;
