Renaming and remapping is colonialism 101. Trump said it, Google maps did it.
For context: “The Gulf took its name from the Mexica people, aka the Aztecs, in the Indigenous language of Nahuatl. The gulf has been named "Mexico" even longer than the country of Mexico”

The news is overwhelming these days, and that’s coming from a journalist. And a reminder that colonialism is not past tense. Renaming, wanting to claim territory, policing identity, white supremacy; all happening now in real-time in the US with global implications.
