He said that Native American mascots are not a sign of disrespect, but I disagree because groups supporting Wisconsin Law say native American sports references are insulting. Each tribe has there own cultures and traditions. Therefore mascots can be a sign of disrespect.

Groups supporting Wisconsin Law say native aAmerican sports references are insulting. Also, each tribe has their own cultures and traditions.

I think that Native American Mascots are racist because they can create harmful stereotypes. The Cleveland Indians logo of chief Wahoo reduced native Americans to cartoon and war chant. Also, the Atlanta Braves do their tomahawk chop, showing we are not real people. A second reason that I think that Native American Mascots are racist is because they are a sign of disrespect. Groups supporting Wisconsin law say native American sports references are insulting, and each tribe has their own cultures and traditions. Another piece of evidence is that opponents of these mascots say they show American Indian culture in a cartoonish way. A third reason why I think that Native American Mascots are racist is because they can create havoc. One piece of evidence is that before a mascot get banned in Wisconsin, a resident must first file a complaint and if that complaint goes through then they may be havoc in that area. My second piece of evidence is that members of Spirit Lake Sioux tribe sued the university of North Dakota to keep the fighting Sioux name.
