Why do we argue amongst ourselves over things in which only that Native Americans can truly decide. Many say we should abolish all Native American mascots others simply don’t care, they say “we grew up around them” and “we mean no harm”. What if I told you neither is correct, why can we not just re-brand the mascots which are offencive and keep the teams the the Native Americans approve. In a New York Times article Joe Cypress who identifies as an “Original Seminole” states “It don’t bother me” that Florida State's mascot is a Seminole, in fact many Native American’s in the area “Approve” their massoct. This could only be done with “the approval of the Seminole Nation” -WSJ, it is obvious that banning all Native american Mascots is an overreach
