Answer:

Historical

Explanation:

The word "squaw" has been used in the past to refer to Native American women in a perjorative way. Today this word, though little used, refers to an extremely wrong, disrespectful, chauvinistic, misogynist term and not appropriate for the evolved thinking we should have in this century. This word should not be used to honor anything, much less a city. Because of its perjorative content, Jossette believes that renaming Arizona as "Squaw Peak" to honor a Native American woman who died in Iraq is necessary to help settle a historic conflict. Moreover it is a very inappropriate tribute.
