A group called the Native American Guardian’s Association (NAGA) is demanding the Washington Commanders change their name back to the Redskins, organizing support for the name reversal with a petition that has gained more than 90,000 signatures.

In all seriousness, I don't know one Native American who cared about the Redskins name.  Mostly a bunch of Karens who were leading the name change charge.

I know a lot of Indians.  Then again, I sell fire water.

I didn't mind the name, but I will admit it was more problematic than "Indians" which was actually a tribute to a player that somehow beat gentlemen's agreements for segregation.

 

There is some high school out in northern Arizona on one of the reservations that uses the name.  Is Redskins one of those things where they can say it to themselves, but others are not allowed to say it?

 

In 2018 or 2019, the Potomack Indian tribe in Virginia pre-emptively gave the Redskins permission to use their tribal name, and told them to keep the logo as well.  Washington Potomacs with the old Indian head logo would be a good solution if they don't go back to Redskins.
