    Great. Now people care less about my people.

    It is hard to square in today's thinking but whitey had a grudging if not outright admiration for the Natives they fought against. Good thing we? had numbers or it could have gone the other way. A lot of those nicknames were out of respect as misguided as it may seem now

    Vikings were oppressors and owned slaves. So did Native Americans but still

    Well at least the Vikings didn't eat those they slaughtered like some indians did.

    Never understood how "Indians" was even derogatory. Columbus thought he landed in India or the West Indies. They should've kept the name and updated the logo to reflect a proud chief or something.

    The Seminoles were consulted and had no issue with Free Shoes U keeping the name.

    They might now though after Willie

    So much this. Dump Chief Wahoo, and go with something like below and BAM, sign of respect. And you get to still be Indians. Everyone wins, except terminally indignant white suburban housewives who would still be outraged for some reason they cannot explain and the SJW mafia on Twatter.


    Nope. At least not in Washington.
