The city of Austin, Texas, could be headed for a name change because of founder Stephen F. Austin’s pro-slavery stance, according to a report recently drafted by officials.
The state capital’s city council is considering renaming dozens of streets, parks, monuments and landmarks with ties to the Confederacy.
The city name itself is included on that list — which designates it as “not directly tied to the Confederacy and/or the Civil War but within the spirit of the resolution representing slavery, segregation, and/or racism.”

Curious what key word you used. Because I would presume 'Austin' would be on the short list.

What kind of soft, SJW-filled state would make symbolic gestures as recompense for slavery?
