Audubon owned slaves. I. Don't. Care. If the Audubon Society changes its name, I will respond precisely the same way I did when the Confederate Air Force changed its name to the Commemorative Air Force or when Anheuser-Busch lost its mind: I will withdraw all monetary support. My few dollars don't mean much to these organizations, but it makes ME happy, and that's all that matters.

I'd ask you to reconsider. While I completely understand your sentiment, please consider the HUGE difference between organizations that protect wildlife versus corporations that make bad beer. If you pull your support for Audubon, it's the innocent birds and natural ecosystem that will suffer.

So be it. Sacrifices must be made.
