| 词条 | Dead Negro Draw |
| 释义 |
It was originally called Dead Nigger Creek until 1963, when the then United States Secretary of the Interior Stewart Udall mandated that the word "Nigger" in geographic names on federal maps and other products be changed to "Negro".[3] [4] Both names probably commemorate the Buffalo Soldier tragedy of 1877.[5] The name is descriptive of violence which was common on the American frontier.[6] See also
