Why did Australia's 10 place name change its name?

Queensland, northeastern Australia, said on August 29th local time that 10 place names in this area contain the word "nigger" that discriminates against dark-skinned people and will be renamed.

The Queensland Department of Natural Resources and Minerals said that, for example, the "Niggers jump" in the northern part of the state (niggers? Bounce) was deleted from all databases in May. The Ministry of Natural Resources then consulted the database and found that there were nine other place names with the same vocabulary, including "Mount" (? Nigger) and "nigger head" (nigger? Head), and the other seven "nigger creek" (nigger? The place named after Xi) is no longer used. But these places have not been given new names, and the old names will still appear in the past maps, plans and records.

Anti-Defamation League (ADL) (ADL) Chairman Roman Abramovich (Dvir? Abramovich told reporters that they welcome the removal of these place names, because the word "n" is undoubtedly an insult to racial discrimination and a powerful symbol of slavery, white supremacy and violence.

According to the report, there has recently been a dispute about colonial statues in Australia, and critics have called for more recognition of the role played by aborigines in Australian history. Australia's indigenous culture can be traced back to tens of thousands of years ago, earlier than the early settlers in Europe. Although the meaning of "nigger" in Australia is not as heavy as that in the United States, it is still offensive and derogatory to the aborigines and African-American minorities here.
