Luke: Yeah, he changed his name to Bolo. He thinks it makes him sound hardcore.
Ben: It don't. What a renamer! Is that the same thing with Jan wanting us to call him Janice?
Luke: Nope. Janice is transgender now. Or whatever - has always been. I can't keep up!

School renaming
The person or people behind the school renamings, statue removals, street renamings, and building renamings most likely isn't even black, male, white supremicist, or a native of the towns the streets, buildings, or schools are being renamed in, or the statues removed in. The person benefitting the most from all this also isn't black, male, white supremicist, or a native of the towns all these decisions are being made.
Malcolm X was a black supremicist and yet nobody renames something named after Malcolm X no matter his beliefs. Malcolm X wasn't perfect, but nobody decides his name is not worthy of being on something because of his (possibly misguided that there was a better/worse group than the next group of humans) beliefs. If the opposite is true, if the building is named after someone who wasn't black, a school renaming, or something similar occurs.
