The Minnesota Disability Justice Network is petitioning the city of Minneapolis to change the name of a local street name due to the historical figure s ties to ableism, the Third Reich and the eugenics movement.
According to a news release, the organization has gotten more than 700 people to sign a petition to rename Dight Avenue in Minneapolis. The street is named after Charles Fremont Dight, a former professor at the University of Minnesota who was considered the leader of Minnesota s eugenics movement. Dight not only founded the Minnesota Eugenics society but actively pursued the same type of eugenics as Nazi scientists such as Josef Mengele. In 1933, Dight wrote a letter to Adolf Hitler praising the Third Reich s efforts to stamp out mental inferiority, the Minnesota Disability Justice Network said in a statement.

Though former police officer Derek Chauvin’s trial is happening in Minneapolis, officials in Minnesota’s capital city say they’re also prepared for protests or anything that comes their way.
In the east metro alone, there are nearly 1,000 officers who can be called in and about 1,000 Minnesota National Guard members who will be available.
