Rename John Muir High School “Robinson High School”
Name this Pasadena California high school after the two accomplished and recognized Black male athletes who were students at this school rather than after the man who — though clearly a great naturalist — has no personal connection to/with Pasadena and/or this particular high school
Why is this important?
I believe the requested renaming would reflect well on the city in which my mother (Eleanor Strawbridge Mead Schlinger), I, and my two daughters (Eleanor’s granddaughters) were born and the school at which my grandfather (Rufus Mead) was principal when Mack Robinson and Jackie Robinson were students there.
