DO ANY OF THESE
LOGOS OFFEND YOU?
All of them should, as they are degrading
and discriminatory, and have no place in the Land of the Free and
the Home of the Brave! It is time for Americans of every race to
step forward and help create the honorable changes that are needed
for the equality of all. Changes like retiring the Cleveland Indians
“Chief Wahoo” logo and the Washington Redskins name
and logo! And if the Atlanta Braves’ “Tomahawk Chop”
had been the “Spear Chucker Chuck,” it would have been
changed overnight! It is time that our Native American brothers
are treated with the same respect that all others are given in this
land that was once theirs! I ask you to register your wishes for
these changes to take effect by adding your name to our protest
of these offensive logos and team titles.
I was told that I would never get
a bunch of white red-neck sports lovers to agree that these changes
were possible. I am one of those white red-neck sports lovers! And
I am man enough to say how sorry I am to my Native American brothers
that in my stupidity I did not realize how these team names and
logos hurt them. The Native American community has not had the numbers
of people or the money that it takes to achieve making these changes
happen by themselves. It is up to Americans of every race to step
forward with the Native American community and demand that these
changes be made for the good of all of us. PLAY BALL. BUT PLAY FAIRLY!
Join us in making sure that these
degrading team logos and names are no longer used. Please fill out
our petition form and register your name to help make our request
for honorable change heard in Washington. If we allow one race to
be discriminated against, none of us is truly safe, and we are not
healthy as a Nation. I am just a Red-Neck White Boy Rock-n-Roller
who believes that, at times, we all must step up to the plate and
live up to the words of President John F. Kennedy. " Find a
wrong and try and right it ".
And to the little girl in Wounded Knee, South Dakota - I'm
out here trying my best baby, I'm out here trying my best.
