Rename 'Colston'
We the undersigned Would like Bristol City Council to rename the following roads in Bristol:
Colston Road, Easton BS5
Colston Yard / Colston Street BS1
Colston Parade BS1
Colston Avenue BS1
Colston Dale BS16
Colston Hill BS16
Colston Street BS16
Bristol City Council have a policy in place to 'meet the needs of Bristol's diverse communities by promoting equality, diversity and community cohesion'
With respect to BLM and recent events, let the people of Bristol speak here to ask our council to listen the voices who ask for positive change in removing references to the evil is steeped within our history.
We can learn, reflect and remember the events in appropriate spaces but no person should have to walk a street named after the figurehead who enslaved and tortured their ancestors.
