Yep, I’ve heard that too. I heard there is a high school somewhere out west, which uses the nickname “Redskins”, and the school population is majority Native American background.
I’ve also seen polls on whether the name of the Washington Redskins should be changed, and strong majorities of Native Americans say it should not be changed.
The liberals who push some of these issues live in their own little world.
I believe that might have been in South Dakota some years ago. A tribe of the Ogala Sioux had their high schools team interviewed by a liberal female reporter for a local news station hoping that the kids on the team would be ‘’offended’’ that a NFL team would be using the name “Redskins’’. As usually happens in these things it blew up on the liberal reporter when the kids said they weren’t offended at all. In fact they felt honored because they felt it reflected ‘’honorably’’ on their ancestors warrior spirit’’. In return they called their basketball team “The Mighty Whiteys’’.
