Total crap & a sellout by the Trustees! Trying to cancel a long ago past. Is UVa going to cancel Thomas Jefferson for all he did for the state of Virginia, America and the founding of the University of Virginia? I sure hope not.
Hopefully. Any person who is willing to enslave (which means torture/rape/murder) other human beings and treat them like animals, is human filth.
Objectively, our slave holding founding fathers were sadistic garbage people. Bonus points for being a real shithead if you played God and waited to free your slaves after you died.

In 1856, during the second year of Wingate’s presidency, Wake Forest trustees repudiated Francis Wayland’s opposition to slavery by eliminating his widely used study, The Elements of Moral Science, as an acceptable text for college classes. The book condemned slavery as un-Christian and became a staple of abolitionist resources.[5] Since Wingate was professor of moral and intellectual philosophy and rhetoric, it must be supposed that he participated in or at least acquiesced to that decision.
censorship was not a particularly good idea in 1856, nor is it now
This isn’t censorship dumbass.
Uh, what?
