Filed under the heading of "You Just Can't Make This Stuff Up," I give you Terry Rambler, who is the Chairman of the San Carlos Apache Tribe in Arizona. Rambler was in DC recently to represent his tribe at Tribal Nations Conference. He is also a signatory to a pledge calling for the Washington Redskins to change their name, because racism.

With me so far? Good.

LOL

Well, honestly, I don’t know what the big deal is about blackface anyway. I’m not getting mad at geishas.

But if we can call out hypocrisy, I guess it’s fair game here.

Part of me hopes that the Washington Redskins meet the KC Chiefs in the Super Bowl, just to make heads explode.
