Prince William County, Virginia's Stonewall Jackson Middle and High School's student bodies are very diverse in racial and cultural make up, a diversity Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson vehemently opposed as an owner of enslaved Africans. It is detrimental to the self-esteem of children of African descent, and to the social and cultural development of all young people to have to attend a school celebrating the life and legacy of a known racist. Let us band together to eradicate an injustice that has stood too long by signing this pettion to have "Stonewall" Jackson Middle and High Schools renamed.
