Is the goal to remove Native Americans from our culture?
One has to wonder how removing all references to blacks and Indians is improving their status.
Just like the Land O Lakes package change: chase off the Indian but keep her land.
I vote for the Washington Leeches which are both parasitic and spineless.
No just everything racist. The problem is everything is racist.
This is what really bothers me about the entire business.
The logo of the Washington Redskins has always been a very dignified, iconic representation of the American Indian.
A 2016 poll indicated that 90% of Native Americans had no objection to the name.

(My High School sweetheart was a proud Cherokee, whose mother was born and raised on a reservation. He was intensely proud of the Redskins.)
At a time when we don’t hear much about the aboriginal Americans, doing away with the Redskins name and logo will just relegate them further into obscurity.
