Re: Redskins Trademark cancelled
Quote:
Amanda Blackhorse : I personally believe that all use of Native-themed mascots and team names are inappropriate. National Congress of American Indians:The report NCAI has released today provides the history of an overwhelming movement to end the era of harmful “Indian” mascots – including the fact that Native peoples have fought these mascots since 1963 and no professional sports team has established a new ‘Indian’ mascot since 1964. John Two-Hawks: How 'Indian' mascots oppress Nevermind most NAs, and most other Americans, don't consider the name "Redskins" offensive. So if you think the people protesting the name are right, guess the KC Chiefs, Florida Seminoles, and everybody else is next. Using the logic, well the press thinks it's offensive now: 10 Frightening Ways We Discriminate Against Fat People, Sizism. Didn't intend the name NY Giants to be discriminatory? Too bad. |
