If You Want to Cruise the Dixie Highway, Better Do It Soon, Well, At Least in South Florida
All that boo-hoo-hoo about anything Confederate that is going on these days is about to target the Dixie Highway. There are those who believe the name implies the "S" word (slavery) and, of course, the evil, horrible "C" word (Confederate). And, lately, they have been pretty much getting their way.
An article in the January 20, 2020, New York Times 'We've got to change this': Has Dixie Highway reached the End of the Road? by Audra D.S. Burch.
In South Florida, leaders are discussing whether to change the name of Dixie Highway, which some say glorifies the nation's racist history.
These anti-Confederates have been very successful in their efforts since the murders in Charleston, South Carolina, so it is most likely they will succeed in their drive to do away with the racist highway.
