Yale University has come under fire Saturday through tweets pointing out the university was named after Elihu Yale, a slave trader.
The hashtag “#CancelYale” started trending nationwide on Twitter.
In one tweet, from Jesse Kelly, around 12:30 p.m. Saturday, he said he called on Yale to “change its name immediately and strip the name of Yale from every building, piece of paper, and merchandise. Otherwise, they hate Black people. #CancelYale”
