Students staged a protest Wednesday inside the office of Princeton University's president, demanding the school remove the name of former school president and U.S. President Woodrow Wilson from programs and buildings over what they said was his racist legacy.
The new America. Where history gets re-written to appease BLM.

Wilson was a raging racist though. Major Progressive too
At one time I believed the history in the books that I read. I now refer to recorded history. I will turn 70 next month if I am still living. I worked in the public library for close to 29 of those years. There is a reason your teachers and professors ask for several sources on the papers you write. I also now realize that just because it is written in a book or on the internet it is not necessarily true. Political correctness has always been with us.
I suggest that instead of tearing up the constitution, it would be a good idea to read it. And don't go to the internet to find out what a natural born citizen is. Go to the library of congress and learn what a natural born citizen really is and why that is stated as a requirement for a person to be president. A natural born citizen must be born inside the USA boundaries. I learned this is high school civics class. I don't know when political correctness changed this rule, but it has been changed and we have people running for president and we have had people elected to that office that do not qualify.
When I look at history and read about different segments of it, it suggests to me that our country is a miracle to still be here.
I worked in the library with one of Woodrow Wilson's descendants and if he was anything like this gentleman I worked with, he was all right. You cannot judge former presidents by today's political correctness. Their society had different politically correct rules and they wouldn't have been elected if they had other standards. If you can find a better country to live in then move there. If you choose to stay in this country then you should honor its history. A house divided against itself cannot stand.

I repped you, because I agree with you. You do realize I was joking about tearing up the Constitution right? But, it does seem that radical leftists would be OK with that!
Personally I think any attack on the uber-aggressive progressive Woodrow Wilson is a good thing.
