The story of the Fighting Whities is one that should be remembered by Redskin detractors. They were trying to insult whites and provoke a reaction. They did, whites liked the name and bought a lot of T-shirts.

The plan to insult whites in the same way the minority students perceived Native Americans being insulted backfired on the group when the team's popularity skyrocketed.
