Re: “'Rebels' Supporters Win Round in Fight for Vote on Name Change”

I'm going to echo what others have said. The name "rebels" and mascot is racist. If you are confused about this, please use Google. Or you could ask one of the very knowledgeable social studies teachers in South Burlington. The name is linked to the Confederacy and keeping the name would be doing harm to PoC in your community and all over America. The racism needs to end. I understand that change is hard, but keeping the mascot and name is the cowardly thing to do. If you want to be a role model, make change happen and show how brave you are by embracing humanism and social justice.
