The “wokeism” consuming our nation is ridiculous. There is nothing disrespectful about how it is presented or the logo’s, but that does not matter.

All of this craziness is what happens when you create numerous college majors for wokeism. They needed jobs (other than Starbucks) so they have inserted themselves into government and corporations and the media at all levels and here we are.

Folks focused on grievances who see one behind every bush and have a handful to throw out on their own are now dictating messaging and action by organizations.

Awhile back, we visited Olympic National Park.

We drove down on the end where there is a fairly large Indian settlement who seem to be men of the sea......fishermen

There was a tribal high school on the reservation. Guess what? They were “the Redskins”

Patently unconstitutional. They have no power to ban any such name. They might be able to refuse a trademark or business name, but probably not even that.

Although if it only bans only Native American names, I guess the 'Portland N-----s' will still be available.

Did the tribes across the country agree to this ? Were they even asked ? Or is this just another elite white speaking for a minority populace ?

Let’s see Inslee eliminate all the Indian names of cities in Washington.

Why?
Most names and mascots are positive. Like that beautiful girl on the butter box, which was just erased.
Eliminating them sound really racist. Like a cancelation if Native Americans.

Their logo is an Indian and/or feathered headdress for both.

We are going to have to knock off Bald Eagles.

They have a white head.

They are a symbol of the USA.

They have FEATHERS!
