Rename everything that's currently named with Indian names or words. Erase them from maps and from history.

To paraphrase the pharaoh from The Ten Commandments "Let the names of American Indians be stricken from every book and tablet, stricken from all pylons and obelisks, stricken from every monument of America. Let the names of American Indians be unheard and unspoken, erased from the memory of men for all time."

Most of the names are there for history or respect. If you don't want that then you will get nothing.

Off the topic, but Chevrolet made a “Confederate” model...

I suspect it’d be very popular today.

Well, maybe not...

This is exactly what’s happening. Pretty soon Native Americans won’t be known or remembered at all.

The names aren’t making fun of Indians - they are Honoring them! And if they don’t want that and manage to banish it, then we won’t remember or mention them at all.

(But the fact is that surveys taken of Native Americans have shown that the great majority of them have taken no offense to the Indian names of sports teams, etc. Again, we have a noisy activist minority trying to speak for the entire Native population.)
