But I think it's a through line that runs through all these discussions of names and also, I think, of language.

Well, that's one of the things I think is so fascinating about that move. As you say, Congress has made it illegal to name something after a Confederate official or general. So what the Trump administration did is they essentially found little known soldiers. I mean, these were brave guys, needs to be said.

They'd won medals, but they certainly were not the kind of person that would ordinarily have a military installation named after them. Ford Benning was initially named after a guy named Henry Benning, but they found a guy named Fred Benning. He was a medal winner. And they just said, okay, now this Ford is named after him.

And similarly, Braxton Bragg, who was a pretty unpalatable Confederate leader, they said, okay, now it's named after a guy named Roland Bragg. These are not well-known figures, but it was a way to say, okay, we are going to name these things Ford Benning and Ford Bragg, but we're going to circumvent the law by saying that it's not, in this case, as it was, named after a Confederate leader.

I mean, I think names are the most basic part of who we are. I mean, you could be male or female. You could be black or white. Those are important categories. But you yourself have a particular name, and there's nothing more specific to your identity than that. So I think names have this fundamental power. And then when we're talking about landmarks or mountains or bodies of water—

Thank you.

Thank you.
