While we re at it, how about renaming San Francisco?

While we re at it, how about renaming San Francisco? FacebookTwitterEmail Abraham Lincoln High School, named for the signer of the Emancipation Proclamation, is one of 42 public schools that will undergo a name change.Santiago Mejia / The Chronicle Just over two weeks ago, Nancy Pelosi began a speech calling for the impeachment of Donald Trump. She began by quoting Abraham Lincoln. “Fellow citizens, we cannot escape history. We will be remembered in spite of ourselves .” Thirteen days later, the San Francisco school board voted to impeach Lincoln, seven other presidents of the United States, three former mayors of San Francisco and two dozen other notable people by removing their names from public schools because they were either racists or conquistadors or had some connection to slavery, racism or oppression. Mission High School and Presidio Middle School were also on the list. Even a mythical place is getting the ax: El Dorado. And forget the Alamo.

Marine Hospital Cemetery

Please Donate Marine Hospital Cemetery Marine Hospital Cemetery in the Presidio - San Francisco Call, March 29, 1896 Marine Hospital Cemetery Opened: 1875 (same year as the hospital?) Location: Behind the Public Health Hospital, Presidio of San Francisco, near 15th Avenue and Lake Streets. Closed: Sometime after 1932 (bodies not moved). The Marine Hospital cemetery was well known at the turn of the twentieth century. It was the subject of an extensive 1896 newspaper article, but by mid-century, it seems to have been almost forgotten. The administrators of the Public Heath Service Hospital decided to bury it beneath piles of debris, rubble, and fill, and to build a tennis court and parking lot on top of most of it. In 1989, during research as part of the baseline studies at the Presidio, the cemetery was, in a sense, rediscovered.

Irresponsible, immature … completely lacking in soldierly qualities : Why the Army booted Jerry Garcia 60 years ago

By CHAD GARLAND | STARS AND STRIPES Published: December 30, 2020 Recruit Jerome J. Garcia’s staunch resistance to the strictures of military life six decades ago got him discharged just months into his enlistment. Five years later, he founded the Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia would go on to be the namesake of both a pot brand and an ice cream flavor. It may seem obvious in retrospect that the founder of one of the biggest psychedelic rock jam bands of the 1960s wouldn t have been cut out to serve “the man,” and his commanding officer made that clear in a December 1960 discharge recommendation.
