Yesterday’s Redskins letters

• Video clip• I graded based on the history, not your opinion• Looking for short summaries of events• Who, what, when, where and why?

• Its ok to disagree with what appears to be my opinion, just back it up with historical examples.

Don’t changeI personally believe that these (the name changers)

people for why this name should be changed and can see from their view why they believe this. But on the other hand, it is just a name and maybe shouldn’t be taken personally. So honestly I don’t care whether this name is changed but it probably would be a smart move.

Don’t changeThe name shouldn't be changed because that is like

trying to erase what Americans did. The name Redskins is only offensive to those that aren’t Native American. They have heard the name for 81 years and shouldn’t change now. It should be up to the owner whether or not the name changes not the politicians.

Don’t changeI believe they should just keep their name. It would

be too much of a hassle to change the name, logo, merchandise. I don’t understand why people that are not Native Americans even have to argue with this. The team should be proud and embrace who they are.

ChangeCommissioner you should suggested a change for the

peace of mind of these people who feel ridiculed or demeaned. You should set a worthy example.

ChangeAll of these examples clearly show how the

Americans treated the Native Americans wrong in so many different ways. How would Americans respond to team names such as “whiteskins” or “blackskins”. The fact that the Indians were treated unfairly only emphasizes the offensiveness.

The Boston Massacre was a street fight that occurred on March 5, 1770, between a "patriot" mob, throwing snowballs, stones, and sticks, and a squad of British soldiers. The presence of British troops in the city of Boston was increasingly unwelcome. The riot began when about 50 citizens attacked a British soldier. Captain Thomas Preston, called in additional soldiers, and these too were attacked, so the soldiers fired into the mob, killing 3 on the spot and wounding 8 others, two of whom died later
