I would expect no less.  From Breitbart:

San Francisco Committee Changed School Names Based on Wikipedia and Wild Accusations
The San Francisco Board of Education voted to rename 44 of the city’s schools, claiming that prominent figures from American history, such as George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Paul Revere, were tied to racist incidents. The committee based their decisions on Wikipedia and other wildly inaccurate information to source its claims.

Committee chairman Jeremiah Jeffries, along with his fellow committee members, used Wikipedia to support their claims that prominent U.S. historical figures had ties to racist incidents, and therefore warranted the renaming of scores of San Francisco schools, according to a report by Mission Local.

A Google Doc showcasing the committee’s notes attempting to justify their reasons for voting to rename the schools revealed some of the bizarre details behind their decision-making process.

You do not have to be accurate, you just have to promote the correct narrative.  That is what scholarship is about these days. Our educational system is a mess. The lunatics have taken over the asylum and locked up the adults.
