MLB Team Photos Out Racist Mascot

Date Published: 2/28/2018

On Halloween I wished that we that we would stop appropriating Indigenous culture. That included high school, college and pro mascots. With baseball season coming up it’s awesome to hear that the Cleveland Indians will be “phasing out” their mascot of Chief Wahoo. While this is an amazing step I believe they should get rid of the logo immediately.



 



My wish is that the fans of the Indians, Braves, or even the Washington football team take into consideration the products they buy. As a diehard Braves fan myself, I decided not to buy the hat with a tomahawk going through the A for Atlanta. I know allegiance for these teams is strong, but our allegiance to our fellow Indigenous brothers and sisters should be stronger.



 



Peace and Love,

Andrew of We Take Note for The Wishwall
