Sometimes it seems as though no amount of protesting can create the kind of trust necessary to inspire lasting change. It can, however, open up spaces for us to address controversial issues that otherwise would be ignored. With that in mind, I want to pivot this week to our a related topic: the Native American mascot controversy. Chapter 15 clearly shows that a movement to ban such offensive mascots has resulted in significant changes, though much still needs to be done. Let’s think, therefore, about examples such as the “Washington Football Team,” the temporary name for the former “Washington Redskins.” Changing offensive mascot names seems to be an important first step. What do you think? Should more be done? Should there be a legal ban on such names, for instance? Should reparations be paid to tribal communities? What do you think the next step should be in the larger Native American mascot controversy
