Not one man who walks or ever walked this earth is free from sin!
In perspective even Native American Tribes warred among themselves, murdering many, taking other tribal members as slaves.
Yes I do know the history of how this country was forged, both the good and the bad.
Every person if they look deep enough in their lineage will find atrocity committed against their people...from the beginning of time!
This is 2020, to eradicate the Positive NA symbolism across this nation only achieves one thing, forgetfulness!
Don't allow it to be swept under the carpet!
Keep Native American Symbolism front and center, then Educate our children to the truths!
How else do we build the bridges that connect all of us?

The term “Redmam” is neither racist nor derogatory; it’s an honorific.

Please do not retired the Conrad Redskins Mascot. It has been in existence for over 80 years for this school. It was never or is now meant to be derogatory but rather as a tribute to our Native Americans.

I couldn't agree more with the verbiage within the petition. We have to continue to keep up the good fight in preventing the eradication of Indigenous history, culture, and imagery throughout society. Eternal Peace and Prosperity to all Native Peoples. Hail to the Redskins!
