Austin Equity Office, Proposal to Rename City of Austin

The City of Austin's Equity Office has proposed renaming the city due to Stephen F. Austin's historical opposition to Mexico's attempt to ban slavery. The discussion covers the distinction between equity and equality and the potential costs of renaming several local streets, including Confederate Avenue and Plantation Road. The city's website was reportedly unavailable during the review of these proposals.
