Mascot

Rights era America generates this feeling that racism is not a problem anymore, simply an unwarranted feeling at best. While expressing minimal sympathy to Redskins fans, King still makes it very clear that the harms associated with Native American mascots certainly outweigh the fan’s sense of connection. The core of King’s reasoning for this opinion centers around the fact that while racist practices have been in place for some time, a traditions longevity does not make it any less racist, yet…

about his power, people start to realise that everything he touches actually die. Another example of marketing failure could be the TV spot released by Burger king named “Wake up with the king” in which a guy wakes up with the presence of the crappy mascot of the famous fast food. Nobody wants to wake up with a crappy king right in your bed and nobody wants burger for breakfast either. These two are example of marketing failures that failed to delivering the right message to the population…

Staffordshire Terrier. Overall it is a medium size, but is very energetic and powerful (Villalobos Rescue Center, 2017). The pit bull was once considered America’s dog. They were prized pets and revered members of the ideal family. The breed was used as the mascot for the Buster Brown Shoe Company and a pit was chosen for the iconic role of Petey in The Little Rascals. After World War II their popularity began to decline and in the 1980s a new…

Living life on the reservation but going to school in Reardon must be very hard for Arnold. Living in two completely different worlds is difficult. Junior is an Indian going to an all-white school where the only Indian thing at the school is their mascot. Going to a completely different school in a whole other town with a lot of white…

Campaigns and hashtags featuring phrases such as “save the bees” and “bring back the bees” have been flooding social media and covering all types of products lately. Brands, such as Honey Nut Cheerios with their disappearing Buzz the bee mascot, have recently began encouraging citizens of the world to contribute to saving honeybees so they will not face extinction. However, are the companies misinforming society on the real status of the bees? On the Cheerios’ website, two specifically…

minorities are viewed. While general opinion of the Native Americans is no longer that they are brutal savages, they are still not viewed in the most positive light. Native Americans are viewed as drunks, or lazy, or animalistic. They are still used as mascots for sports teams such as the Cleveland Indians, the Chicago Blackhawks, and the Washington Redskins, making them less human and more mythological creatures. The use of these team names may not seem like much of a…

highest in the school. I was unique in my class, like a pink poodle” (page 31). This shows the saddening truth that although he is a bright individual, he notices that it is irrelevant if his skin is darker than his peers. He feels as though he is their mascot and not a true human being. The turning point in Malcolm’s adolescent character, and the time that he truly grasps the extent of pure racism, is the interaction he has with his teacher. Malcolm aspires to be a lawyer and informs his…

against Natives in public and comment sections online you’d never dare hear or see them say if the people were black, Hispanic, or Jewish” (Jawort 1). This relates the type of discrimination and racism discussed by Tim Giago, author of “Indian Named Mascots: An Assault on Self-Esteem.” He explains, “Picture a section of fans as people supporting a team called the African Americans. Imagine them doing the same things to black Americans as they are doing to Native Americans” (Giago 173). Both…

Street signs and places repel the darkness, while people are shopping or just selling whatever they can to make a living. As a young child, I couldn’t take my eyes of the vivid colors, nor the interesting mascots that some store revealed. I was only so little, yet, the beauty of it all is still stuck in my mind. We came out the yellow shining taxi and as they were all taking out our luggage from the trunk of the taxi, and my grandfather whispered to my grandmother…
