Fort Worth Council approves controversial White Settlement Road name change
About a mile of the road, just west of Downtown Fort Worth, will now be called Westside Drive. The reason for the change is a proposed $1.7 billion retail and residential development called Westside Village.
"If one is offended by the word white, get over it or move," said Luelle McKenzie.
"White Settlement Road has historical significance just like our beloved Fort Worth," said another person who spoke at the city council meeting.
The name White Settlement dates back to the 1800s, when settlers were first identified by local Native Americans.

This stuff needs to change. Whoever is truly offended by this can’t be pleased.

traditionally it has been, but Ft Worth has dipped their toe in the WOKE stream the past couple years pushing agenda and DEI centered hires

I mean who truly offended by this? Have they gone on record?

Honestly surprised it lasted that long. Even in Tarrant county.
