What will the District of Columbia be renamed to stop honoring Christopher Columbus?
— Steve Sailer (@Steve_Sailer) September 30, 2021
Other suggestions from readers include:
District of Emmitt Till
District of St. George of Floyd
District of Corruption
District of Boaty McBoatFace
District of Football Team
Of course, that raises the issue that Washington was a white man, too. Some double solutions:
District of Martha and Booker T. Washington Football Team

Cause it sounds really cool.
Not only did he actually win the Haitian Revolution, instead of giving up like that wimp Louverture, but he went on to, quite literally, kill all the white people. It doesn't get more woke than that.

Call it America, retroactively installing the Spanish and Brazilian practice of naming the country after the capital city, in deference to Who We now Are.
District of Corn Pop.
The Federal Government owns some huge chunk of the mountain states; of course federal lands are only supposed to comprise a relative postage stamp-sized piece of MD/VA. Rename DC to East Nevada.
Oh, and sell-off federal lands at open auction, to the highest, private bidders. Rebate the proceeds to taxpayers. The states should not be allowed to turn privatization into property tax windfalls. The extra property tax revenue should be offset by tax reductions on real estate already on the rolls. Tax neutrality.
Try something else. Think creatively and destructively.
With Precedent Biden, why not name it Washington Deceased?
But Columbus wasn’t a white man. He was Latinx, the very first in the world.

I say just change it to Chinese. It’ll confuse the hell out of blacks and whites alike but it’s suitable.
哥伦比亚特区 = District of Columbia
The Google Maps District of Sacagawea.
Tubman City, D.S.
In the interest of causing minimal disruption, it would be nice to preserve the DC initials. Hence I propose: District of Colón. We’d be honoring the same guy, but see now he’d be Latinx, and as we know, if you’re Latinx you can get away with stuff that’s forbidden to gringos. You can say “negro”. You can get affirmative action even if you’re genetically 100% European.
So [Booker T.] Washington, District of Colón. Minimal disruption, maximal wokeness.
In Georgetown, it could be a double entendre.
How about just “smoldering crater”?

After our city council decided to rename a major street after murder co-conspirator Brionna Taylor — the Brionna Taylor Way: flush the rocks and claim you were sleeping — I rang affecting a black drug psychotic and pitched them to rename the whole town “Suge Knight City” after the LA mega gangster.
Apologies to Mr. Knight, but he does embody many DC core values. You could even keep the DC, as in Suge Knight DC, portrayed by the Death Row electric chair or maybe a RINO being electrocuted.

District of Color
Well, since the Chocolate City isn’t as chocolate as it used to be these days, I’d say this isn’t really as an important issue anymore. Besides, the name “DC” has a certain flair and history to it. Whatever name you would come up with, what most likely have to have a C at the beginning of it.
And there are a whole lot of them in residence there, FWIW
District of Cairo
District of Cameroon
District of Chad
District of Congo
or, District of Comorin (the intended destination of Columbus)
Losing namesakes is the least of the problems White people face. How about the tens of millions who’ve fled the forced integration aimed only at them? How about the millions of White children who suffered lifelong trauma due to bussing? Or the destruction of millions of careers in the name name of “diversity”.

I doubt that DC was named to honor the man, Columbus. It honors the 1492 Columbus voyage, connecting the Old World with the New World. It was one of the most important events in world history.
However much you or anyone else might dislike Columbus the man, his trip was still one of the great events of all time.

So the Georgetown area (or any other distinctive D.C. neighborhood) becomes a “semi-colón.”
If they follow precedent, it will be renamed the Guardians.

DC shouldn’t be allowed to change its name. It should be forced to.

The fracas over Columbus Day is funny to me because it was in it’s day a project of deconstructing the core American population’s ownership or legitimacy of ownership over America and ethnic territory marking. “Hey, the first guy to discover the continent was Italian!”.
The most interesting example was the original statue conflict in 1920s Richmond was the attempt by Italians to erect a statue of Columbus close to monument avenue. The press ran with the story and made it a cause celebre. They declared that two of the politicians trying to block it had connections to the KKK and the statue went ahead.

George Washington owned slaves, but we don’t need to rename the city. We can just retcon it to be for some Washington of color. Not unlike the way Seattle renamed King County after Martin Luther Junior of that ilk (previously having been for Rufus King).

I've tried to say this before, and maybe it isn't worth bothering with again, but I don't recognize the District of Columbia that most of you insult in these comments, over and over again. The city is a tiny enclave that is today mostly but not entirely wealthy. (I was not, but my story is today unusual.) Demographically speaking, it is possible if you have the money to live in a wide swath of the city where you will encounter mostly white residents. I actually think that would appeal to many of you: neighborhoods of stately detached single-family homes with yards, plenty of trees and other greenery, quiet, removed from your workplace, good street parking for your new, gleaming luxury SUVs. No elevator buildings adjacent to your houses, nothing much to walk to. Public transit (not that good) would not be an issue. I know most of you hate the public schools, but there are good ones in the areas I'm thinking of, as I've said before. There are a large number of private schools, or someone could homeschool.
The less desirable areas of the city are minuscule compared to those in larger cities. Washington DC is not like Baltimore or Philadelphia, not like New York City, and NOTHING like Chicago. I am preoccupied with the latest big crime here yesterday at the evening rush hour: a rolling automatic gun battle downtown that went on for at least a mile.

After William (April) Ellison, an accomplished black man.
He is #2 on the top ten list of black slave owners in America.
https://listverse.com/2017/06/06/top-10-black-slaveowners/
“In 1862, William Ellison was one of the largest slave owners in South Carolina as well as one of the wealthiest. He was born a slave and was given the name April, after the month in which he was born. He was luckier than most and was bought by a white slave owner named William Ellison, who took the time to educate him. When he was 26 years old, he was freed by his master and began building his expansive cotton plantation. As a free man, he had his name changed to William Ellison, that of his former owner.
What makes Ellison so despicable and earns him the number-two spot on this list is how he collected his wealth. Ellison was known to have made a large proportion of his money as a “slave breeder.” Breeding slaves was illegal in many Southern states, but Ellison secretly sold almost all females born, keeping a select few for future breeding. He kept many of the young males, as they were considered useful on his plantation. Ellison was known to be a harsh master, and his slaves were almost starved and extremely poorly clothed. He kept a windowless building on his property for the specific purpose of chaining his misbehaving slaves.[9]”

Regular classic Italians and Italian Americans are white. Look at the people on this list:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Italian_Americans
Almost all of them are white and would be considered white in any circumstance.
I know the Milanese would be much more at home if they could be an orderly Swiss Canton in the Eyetalian dogs breakfast. Genoa too probably belongs there. Is the Northern League still a thing?
Indubitably Honkie.
I foresee a future where The Most Serene Republic of San Marino becomes the norm, but I was always an optimist.
New Lagos would be appropriate. Much or most of its inhabitants originated from that slave depot. And no American city is named for an African hometown.

It’s the “Italian” that’s up for redefinition here. Like all of the Euro-states cobbled together in the 1800’s it made about as much ethnic sense as colonial borders usually did. The classic example is Belgium: What sort of moron creates a Country out of things called Flems and Walloons?

Or they could have imported Serbs and Albanians by the milion, to create new islands of Whitism. But the US White women loves George Floyd types.Replies: @HammerJack, @Anonymous, @Professional Slav, @TWS, @TWS
I get along fine with the one Albanian I’ve met. Same with most Eastern Europeans if Poland and Ukraine count. We took in Chechen folks in America, never met any but they were a bit too violent for most Americans.
Where do you draw the line for Eastern European?

Most of us, me included don’t speak Russian. Other than that not bad. I’d prefer Poland being Catholic myself but I enjoy an Orthodox mass even if I don’t understand much of it.
Serbs and Albanians anre not whites to Atlantic islands peeople who created The United States.
Miscegenation was a very serious crime in The United States until quite recently.Replies: @TWS
Serious crime? Recently? We’re further from that era than the Wright brothers were from jets. As I mentioned before I’ve never met a Serb of any kind but from every picture I’ve seen they look positively pale.
Jews?
Obviously European languages, including Spanish, will have to go.
What are we waiting for?
Memphis, Alexandria.
During the crack wars of the 1990’s, D.C. was referred to as “Dodge City”
whineplea. Well, we could also untax them, as with Puerto Rico. Now that would speed up gentrification!Who get three presidential electors.Replies: @profnastyAt this point, what difference does it make? The Audit is in: Proof and everything. Whomever can sneak in more mail-in ballots, after election day, rules over US. Verily taxation without representation.
Why in the frack do we have to support worthless gold toothed goblins?
It beggars belief.
