You guessed it. It’s racist!

A Portland high school has postponed changing its mascot to an evergreen tree after a committee member raised concerns about its possible connotations to lynching.

Burn and cut down all trees because they were once used for racism. The seeds of racist trees have birthed systemically racist trees.

If you look at a tree and your first thought is a person being lynched, you might be the one who is racist. Just a thought.

They named the school after a journalist who covered lynching and made the mascot the Evergreens
