A review of Colorado place names reveals a notorious, checkered past

To get to the Sand Creek Massacre National Historic Site near Eads, where 230 Native Americans were murdered, you might drive through a town named for their murderer. In between Eads and the turnoff, you’ll go through the unincorporated town of Chivington. It’s named for Civil War-era Col. John Chivington, who led the attack by the 1st and 3rd Colorado cavalries on Arapaho and Cheyenne living at Sand Creek that resulted in the slaughter. Half of those killed were women and children. While Chivington may be an extreme case, dozens of sites around Colorado have taken on names that are now getting a new look as calls for equality grow louder amidst Black Lives Matter protests.

Arkansas Governor signs strict anti-abortion law, touts ARHOME legislation

Gov. Asa Hutchinson signed Tuesday (March 9) a bill that prohibits abortions except in cases involving the health of the mother. The pro-life measure does not have an allowance for abortions in the case of rape or incest. The bill, SB 6 (now Act 309), sailed through the supermajority Republican state Legislature. With 78 Republicans in the House and 27 in the Senate, the bill met little resistance in either chamber. Though litigation is expected over the law, without court intervention it would go into effect in Arkansas on Aug. 3, 2021. Hutchinson had voiced concerns about the measure due to the lack of a provision for rape or incest. In signing the bill, he acknowledged that concern, but it did not stop him from making the bill state law.
