Per a press release from Dan Inouye's office, July 20, 2004:
Jefferson County, Tx, commissioners agreed to rename "Jap Road" -- a rural lane outside Beaumont. Inouye responded to the Japanese American Citizens League "and other civil rights organizations."
Just thought the brilliant, inquiring minds of the media forum would like to know.
By the way, does anyone out there know of other strangly named roads, lanes, bridges, passes, highways or byways?
