I’m a Sioux Indian and have several old friends who grew up on the reservation (I didn’t.) They told me once when this logo controversy first came up that when they were growing up on the rez, one of the kids had a Cleveland Indians baseball cap that they used to take turns wearing because they all thought it was so cool.
They didn’t know that they were supposed to be offended I guess.
I hear of the same thing on the reservations here in ND; the most popular sports attire is UND Fighting Sioux.
PS: Cherokee and Delaware (Lanape) ancestry. If anything doing this will make the Chief Wahoo logo caps more popular than ever.
Went to an Cleveland vs Angels game once and the most outlandish Indian gear was worn by real indians. What a hoot!
