Palm Springs, California, will remove a row of trees separating a neighborhood from a golf course—because they were deemed racist by residents.

Lawrence Crossley neighborhood residents complained that the trees evoked feelings of “segregation” and “discrimination.” The trees reportedly block a historically African-American neighborhood from the city-owned Tahquitz Creek Golf Course, according to local newspaper the Desert Sun.
