Let's not forget Millard Fillmore...
P.S. -- someone may want to tell the council that the name "Buffalo" is a form of cultural appropriation and the city needs to change its name.

This after the University at Buffalo decided to remove Fillmore's name from its campus in August.

Mayor Byron Brown issued the following statement:
"I have requested that the Buffalo Arts Commission review all statues and monuments with an eye toward evaluating the legacy of the honorees and making recommendations to re-purpose any that are undesirable historical figures."
Hopefully they will not put up any statues of people who have convictions or outstanding warrants for gun crimes, assault and battery, drug dealing, or sexual assault. I know that will eliminate some of the suggestions that are currently floating around but they might want to look a little harder. I don't consider them to be "desirable historical figures."
Yeah.... let's wipe Millard Fillmore's name off everything and pull down his statues...... after all "Throughout his career, Fillmore declared slavery an evil"
Great job - Buffalo. Now go change the name of your city and stop culturally appropriating Native Americans.

Technically wouldn't every President from Washington Lincoln fall under that same general blank category?
This is getting stupid now...
Local school district near me is having a meeting because two schools are named after Thomas Jefferson and George Mason. I think they should have just stuck with the focus on Confederate traitors and left it at that.
