Re: RI wants to change its name over slavery

I really didnt know they had such a long official state name, "State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations".

Maybe it would make them feel better if they changed their name to "Rhode Island, we didn't have as many slaves as our neighbors, Massachusetts and Connecticut".
