Thousands of Gamecocks have called for the renaming of buildings like Strom, Sims, Hampton, and more.
The buck stops at @HarrisPastides and as of now, he has failed us.
Students and alumni are #ReadyToRename, and @UofSC leadership won’t commit.
Our fight is not over 🔥
“If that banner hanging on a light pole has any real meaning, the university must demonstrate to this current generation of students that change is indeed possible.”
Show us change is possible, @HarrisPastides! #ReadyToRename
Black students will attend classes and events in buildings honoring men identified as secessionists, segregationists, slave owners and/or supporters of slavery — imagine that, The State’s Editorial Board writes. https://t.co/US4DJEZF8P
The @UofSC community is #ReadyToRename buildings on campus that honor Confederates and segregationists.
It is now up to @HarrisPastides + USC admin to give the Commission’s report to the Board of Trustees to make the official commitment.
Gamecocks, our fight has just begun.
And thank you to @LucasDaprile for staying on this story and keeping our community up to speed on all things #ReadyToRename ❤️🤙🏽

The Presidential Commission on University History is meeting right now.
They said they plan to get their final report, which includes actions regarding university history at USC, to interim president Harris Pastides by July 15.
Like @UofSC, our friends at @UNC are reckoning with campus buildings and history.
It is up to institutions like ours to be bold in leadership and create campuses that reconcile with their history + uplift the people and legacies that are deserving of the honor.

It has been 50+ years since police let James Cates, 22, bleed to death on UNC’s campus in 1970. The former Daniels Building next to where this tragedy occurred will receive a new name this summer. Members of his family would like to see it renamed for James Cates.
⚡️ Check out the link in our bio for a prewritten email to send to Pastides ([email protected]) and our BoT ([email protected]). ⚡️
@HarrisPastides we are #ReadyToRename! 🔥
Gamecocks are #ReadyToRename campus buildings that celebrate racists and segregationists.
It’s time to close this shameful chapter in USC and create a campus that is for EVERYBODY.
The future of @UofSC and our state can’t wait.
This month, the @UofSC Presidential Commission on University History will announce which buildings to prioritize for renaming, including Strom Thurmond Fitness and Wellness Center.
If you want to #RenameStrom, join us in telling @HarrisPastides we’re #READYTORENAME!
