>It is very important to the history of the area and country.

Literally everything that happens is technically important to history. But "it's important to history" and "people in the area know and/or care about it" are two different statements.

>The Johnson massacre.

Ah, so the one thing you knew is "well the natives killed some people too". Convenient.

>A distraction?

Yes, a way for you to avoid the actual point, which is that the Quinsigamond Plantation does have a history with slavery and genocide. Your little "oh who said anything about AFRICAN slavery" schtick was just stalling for time.

>I use sites like still made in the US and others before I purchase most things.

And where do those companies get their materials from? Do you think you can circumvent international capitalism with smart choices from a website?

>It really does not matter to the conversation though, as I am not trying to change the name of anything.

You are trying to preserve the name of something that you have no genuine reason to care about. Also, it does matter to the conversation, since your main reason that UMASS shouldn't advocate for the name being changed is that you personally believe they aren't morally pure enough to "deserve" it.

>No reason? Why do you say that?

I mean you don't really care. Nobody in this thread does. Pretending that a street name being changed is somehow offensive or disgusting to you is obviously fake shit. What you actually care about is the idea of things becoming "more PC", hence why a street name has become the flashpoint for all of Worcester's dingy little conservatives to crawl out of the darkness and pretend they have something important to say.
