I am Scots-Irish and AniYunWiya mix...I know of no “Indians” who wanted the nicknames changed...
libs continued their crusade against the Redskin name, basically telling Native Americans to sit down and shut up.

I used to care about that issue and despised those who caved to the mob and changed the team’s name. But after thinking about the “thug” issue and a few other unlikable aspects of the NFL I lost Interest. I remember attending games at the old Griffith Stadium and was thrilled to witness the great Sammy Baugh in action.
I was born in DC.

Me too, 1941!
Should we then call whoever they’re playing each week the Shirts?
It all started because white liberal activists could not mind their own business. They never asked the Indians if it was really a huge problem or not. And because they could not do it all by themselves they fired up the black crowd to help parrot the same narrative.
So the idea to change the label was imposed on the Natives whether they wanted to or agreed or not.
They need to stay out of other peoples business...
“I am part Native American.... And I have NO problem with going back to Redskins..!!!!!
Me too. It was intended to be a tribute to the courage and fight in the Native americans during battle. It was meant to be a compliment, not derogatory...
That survey was quietly buried because who cares what the American Indians think about it. The Great White Liberal in Washington knows best.
What Native Americans don’t agree with Jane Fonda and America’s Karens?

Seems they don’t care much for that phony Pocahontas Skank either.
I had a workmate (American Indian) who arranged to go to a KC Chiefs game from Idaho. He’s a huge fan of the team. The Chiefs treated them as special guests and he came back to work on a very high note. I would dare to say if KC change their name he would take it as an insult. The American Indian is a proud American and deserves the respect of their fellow Americans not marginalized by removing references to their heritage. Take a tour through the Cody museum in Wyoming’s Indian wing and look at the exhibits. It’s very impressive. Leftist suck. Period. IMO.
interesting that “Native Americans” are the Only Americans with “American” in their name.
Leftist suck. Period. IMO.

What we who are NOT leftists, Democrats, Socialists, Communists, Progressives, etc. must learn is that virtually all of them are dangerous ENEMIES of people who are NOT members of those groups. We should avoid contact with them whenever possible, and when it’s not possible resolutely disagree with everything they say that we believe to be wrong.
True.
There was a small group of Native American Activists that had the ear of the left who wanted the name gone. The bulk appear to have never wanted it gone and said so, but were drowned out and ignored by the media.
