\n A restaurant is shifting over into a new era.<\/p>\n

An eatery in Missouri is changing its name from Savage to SHIFT, citing the \u201ctroubled history\u201d behind its former moniker.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, the restaurant, located in St. Louis\u2019 Fox Park neighborhood, announced the name change on its now rebranded Facebook<\/a> page.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis team and our intentions center around relentless learning and growth inside and outside of the restaurant, but sometimes intentions are not enough. Systemic racism is ubiquitous, outrageous and we stand against it,\u201d the company wrote in the lengthy post.<\/p>\n

\u201cSavage is a word with a troubled history and it was a mistake to celebrate that in our naming. We are truly sorry for the ignorance and haste of choosing it and any harm or discomfort it may have caused any of our guests and community.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will continue to learn, grow and shift towards a better future. We honor, respect and app<\/a>reciate the questions being asked and work that needs to be done to create safety and equality for BIPOC [Black, Indigenous and People of Color],\u201d the statement concluded.<\/p>\n

Those online appeared to be supportive of the move, as well as the new name.<\/p>\n

The term \u201csavage\u201d was used as one of many racial stereotypes for African American people, Michigan\u2019s Ferris State University explained in its Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia.<\/p>\n

The news of the company changing its name to something more inclusive comes as many high-profile products have begun rebranding to remove racial biases or offensive imagery in the wake of George Floyd\u2019s death and the Black Lives Matter movement.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
