If anything, this is why I don’t particularly care about giving them a few inches.

I think the lesson of not naming after people is lost on them, but otherwise- I’m not sure why you’d be so upset about Leah chase circle

I mean, in the same way catching a red light changes your commute time and gas bill.

Is it perfectly used resources? No. Is it anything that’s going to materially impact your day? No.

And not one of them will consider how much money its going to cost already struggling businesses on those streets when they have to update all of their advertising, marketing materials, signage, websites, and whatever else they had their address on.


There’s going to be plenty of lead time. And folks aren’t going to suddenly have no idea lee circle existed.

Oh yea, and I’m pretty sure updating their website won’t bankrupt them. For the most part we are talking tweak your business cards when the box runs out level of inconvenience here outside a very select few that may have the street name literally in their business name.

Because it is laughable to name anything besides a restaurant after a chicken and gumbo cook.

Are there any other great cities in the world who have named streets after cooks.

It’s completely asinine at this point, this isn’t about equality, it’s domination. Just like the same type of crowd wants the buildings on LSU’s campus renamed to all black people.

Maybe researching about her, and her husband, would open your eyes a bit. You come across as a huge cuck with this blathering.

New Orleans media have been shoving her story down our throats for a couple of decades.

And you sound like a fricking eunuch.

Why not just ban all things white in New Orleans?

No more racist center lines in the road.

Sure it's not going to "materially" impact my day. Same as if I changed your address because I didn't like it, it wouldn't "materially" impact your day but it would be a pain in the arse for you only for the sake of not hurting my feelings.

And again, Tulane Ave houses two of the largest Tulane-owned buildings in the city. Changing it makes absolutely no sense. It's simply pandering.

What morons.

Why not change the name of the state FIRST. No one more responsible for slavery in America. The State of Louisiana was named after Louis XIV, King of France from 1643 to 1715. As the monarch of France, Louis XIV personally presided over and personally profited from a systematic French slave trade in their colonial empire. Louis XIV created Le Code Noir which had the purpose of destroying African culture slaves possessed. As monarch, Louis XIV had more power than anyone in history over slavery as his word was law. We must not honor this man and thus must change the name of our state.

And the city. The city of New Orleans was named in honor of the then Regent of France, Phillipe II, Duke of Orléans. On the death of his father in June 1701, Philippe inherited the dukedoms of Orléans, Anjou, Montpensier and Nemours, as well as the princedom of Joinville. Upon the death of the prince de Condé in 1709, the rank of Premier Prince du Sang passed from the House of Condé to the House of Orléans. Philippe was thus entitled to the style of Monsieur le Prince. As regent, Phillip personally presided over and personally profited from a systematic French slave trade in their colonial empire. We must not honor this man and thus must change the name of our city.

Is she that woman who owned the restaurant that had no insurance unlike many other New Orleans restaurants and had to be TOTALLY bailed out for that irresponsibility. And got first in line.

Leah Chase Circle isn't bad since it can reduced to Leah Circle


It'll get reduced to Dooky Circle, if we're being honest.

Which hey, let's go full absurdity. It'll be fun until it's soul-crushing.

Edit: Think of how language and slang evolves. It could conceivably devolve into shite Circle within a few generations ala Idiocracy.

There is a rather large entity uptown that might disagree


I believe Paul Tulane has a few slaves which has the Take Em Down nutjobs all hot and bothered. The funny part is none of these Take Em Down has ever taken a history course in their lives.
