Photo by Daniella Zalcman @dzalcman | In May, Maine became the first state in the U.S. to ban Native American mascots in public high schools and universities. Other states have attempted to pass partial measures limiting usage—in 2015 California banned schools from using "Redskin"—but there are still more than a thousand schools across the country with mascots called the Redskins, Braves, Redmen, Indians, Savages, Chiefs, or Warriors. (This is the Cuyahoga Heights Middle School football team in Ohio.) Native American activists and scholars across the country have called for an end to mascots that invoke Indigenous names, epithets, and slurs, but pace of change has been glacial—and there are plenty of pro sports teams in the U.S. that go by many of the same names. According to a 2005 report from the American Psychological Association, "The use of American Indian mascots as symbols in schools and university athletic programs is particularly troubling because schools are places of learning. These mascots are teaching stereotypical, misleading and too often, insulting images of American Indians. These negative lessons are not just affecting American Indian students; they are sending the wrong message to all students." This photo appeared in the December 2018 issue of National Geographic magazine as part of a story on Native American imagery in America.

corey_s_betland The Europeans didn't get so bright, hard working, or beautiful because of luck. Harsh conditions like Russian/Scandinavian winters ensured only the strongest, best looking, and most prepared people survived over the years. The Indians didn't rough it through any plagues, handle liquor, or do very much with America's abundant resources. In only a few generations the evil white man has made a pretty cool place. I'm tired of smug, spineless cucks like that sewer rat diamond trying to diminish the accomplishments of better men.

michael.border @hollismarcus5 so you're an oxymoron you call me names disrespect me...but tell me if I think names honor someone and I respect and teach my kid about natives because schools dont...you are part of the problem...think about it. You yourself talk in a disrespectful manner that's why you're so negative

escobarvian I’m a St. John’s University fan and before they changed their name from Red Men to Red Storm they were the best in the Big East Conference. They’ve been terrible since the name change. Now they’re just the Johnnies. Now that’s lame. Im the end I’m for what’s right & proper for Native Americans.

super_____t For the school featured in the picture. It was founded in 1938, and the village of Cuyahoga Heights and the river that runs through it (Cuyahoga River) is an Iraqoian word. So the specific village/school got it because Native Americans literally lived within the area hundreds of years before.

kellenbalen3 If there was a team who's mascot wore blackface, and there name was something like The Porch Monkeys.... You would say, whoa, that's offensive. No matter your race. Calling a team "redskins" is just as bad. It's not about not trying to offend someone, it's about respecting everyone.

kingj97010 Ban the Vikings as well, and the patriots (you know cause non-patriotic people might get offended) and you know what? Let’s ban all the names that are somehow related to a culture, that surely will solve all the problems that those cultures have. It will end racism for sure.
