Changez le nom de l’avenue Christophe-Colomb / Change the name of Avenue Christophe-Colomb

To change the name of streets that are named for people who are responsible for genocide, slavery and/or colonialism.

Why is this important?

We must decolonise our societies in order to increase equality and reduce systemic oppression. Having such a major street on unceded indigenous land is a slap in the face and is a tacit approval of genocide, racism and colonialism.
