Pete Buttigieg wants Thomas Jefferson events and buildings renamed
Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg called for everything honoring Thomas Jefferson to be renamed.
“Yeah, we’re doing that in Indiana. I think it’s the right thing to do,” Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, said in a Friday radio interview with conservative host Hugh Hewitt.
“There’s a lot, of course, to admire in his thinking and his philosophy,” Buttigieg said of the author of the Declaration of Independence and the nation’s third president.
“But then again, if you plunge into his writings, especially the ‘Notes on the State of Virginia,’ you know that he knew slavery was wrong. And yet he did it,” he explained.
The pol favors removing Jefferson’s name from traditional events, like the Democratic Party’s annual Jefferson-Jackson dinners, and from buildings — but not from history books.
“Over time, you develop and evolve on the things you choose to honor,” Buttigieg said. “Naming something after someone confers a lot of honor.”
