Last year, the University of Pennsylvania's Annenberg Election Survey found that 90 percent of Indians did not consider "Redskins" offensive."
Column: Indians don't care about Indian mascots
Nine in 10 Native Americans say they are not offended by the Washington Redskins name, according to a new Washington Post poll that shows how few ordinary Indians have been persuaded by a national movement to change the football team’s moniker.

But as the virtual signaling is now at warp speed, I am sure it has its desired effect into instilling the sense of victimhood in younger Native Americans.
It is a shame because the one ethnicity that most people brag about who can is Native American. I am 3%. I wish it was much more. |
That's you "scientific" sampling????
Ahhhh.....you do realize some of those articles are 20 years old, and from a source dedicated to Native American casino gambling????
