It's worse than they say.
That poor oppressed indigenous American is portrayed in white face!
And the maroon/wine color is almost a perfect match for the NFL Redskins' Burgundy! How racist is that!
The anonymous arm poised for a sword stroke on the hapless native American should he step out of line. Surrounded by a sea of White, White, White....
And what's up with the not so subtle position of the letters C and R on his knees and the letter P on his right instep. CRP is text speak shortcut for Crap!
And as if all that wasn't insulting enough, they made him look like Bruce Jenner or maybe Jackson Brown...
;>) odd, I feel so much better now.
UMass used to be called the Redmen and mascot was an Indian but they changed to Minutemen in early 70s after libs complained.
