The Washington Post conducted a nationwide poll of Native Americans about 10 years ago (maybe more) about the Redskins name. 90% of the Native Americans either approved of the name, or didn’t care.

The Post staff admitted to being shocked by the results. Of course, the fact nobody outside of D.C. cared about the issue wasn’t suprising, it just showed Post staffers were isolated from the real world.

Anyway, ignoring the results, white libs continued their crusade against the Redskin name, basically telling Native Americans to sit down and shut up.

My suggestion: call them the Skins, which is what people called them anyway.

Awesome! My long dead father loved the Redskins. Maybe because I was born in DC.

Hell yes. It's a badge of honor and bravery not some convoluted definition of racism. This will require more than limited-influence Native Americans, so let's join up and pile on.

The new woke owner and the woke NFL will refuse, but the thought about erasing Native American heritage could be shaming and effective.

Ditto in Cleveland with the Indians/Challengers, although their logo was a bit condescending.

And Land of Lakes butter.

I am Scots-Irish and AniYunWiya mix...I say leave the nicknames alone as they were...Redskins, braves, etc...

Change the Army bases BACK to what they were...Fort Bragg, Fort Hood, etc...

If you cancel anything, cancel this “cancel culture”....

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
― George Orwell, 1984

GOOD! I was in the store and saw the Land O Lakes box with the empty spot where the Indian maiden used to be. What a sad carton.
White liberals are trying to erase the Native from America.
