Disrespecting a Giant of American History, Robert Gould Shaw.
I have written to W.R. Councilman O'Malley, as follows:
Dear Councilor O'Malley..
I was born and raised in West Roxbury, and my first interest in American history, was in the learning of the history of Shaw.
My Point: Who thought it more fitting to rename the Shaw Shool in honor a Patrick Lyndon... By what measure was that determined?
Even if Jack Kennedy had been a native of West Roxbury, it would not have been a fit thing to do? Is there any record of the discussion that led to the renaming.?
Jack Barry, West Roxbury, 1944- 1969.
San Francisco, since then.
