Political Ideas

Rosita C Youngblood champions the renaming of Negro Mountain, arguing that the current name is disparaging and unwelcoming to tourists. Her legislative initiative, House Resolution No. 378, seeks to form a commission to study and rename both Negro Mountain and Mount Davis, aiming for names that honor the region's history and African American heroism.
