Personally I feel like a name change is necessary since right now it seems like you are trying to loophole racism. Not sure if I'm the only one who feels this way.

However you say you have been admin for 3 months and a bit. Personally this is enough time to gain enough experience however it isn't always depending on how long you have been staff for it is mainly how you act as a leader. You will need to be active among the meetings and voice your opinions since this is highly looked upon. Object if your opinion isn't heard!

Goodluck!
