That’s Cliff’s point.

People have wanted a lot of these schools renamed for a long time, and if you’re going to paint everyone with a broad brush you can at least provide something more to substantiate the claim than an opinion. It’s pretty simple, changing the name of the schools most likely helps with reconciliation where as leaving them named as they are really provides no benefit to anyone.
I highly doubt cliff would argue people in the US who oppose the confederate flag are only opposing it because it’s the flavour of the month.
