ACE Debate 10R 2016

Another reason is that is stereotypical to many races. One piece of evidence is "The Atlanta Braves do their tomahawk chop is stereotypical to many American Indians." Another piece of evidence is that "Depicting us as characters are very toxic for Native Americans" Suzan Harjo tells JS. I also agree with this.

She said that is a tribute to them. But I disagree and some of them are racist. Because "the San Diego State University Aztecs is a "strong tribal name" and is offensive and racist to many people. That is from the article Mind your own mascots. I agree with this because it is racist. And it is not a tribute to them.

One reason is that their names can be offensive to some people. One piece of evidence is that "Pro football team Washington Redskins are offensive because they refer to African Americans as colored." That is from Native American Mascots Devalues culture. That is a strong piece of evidence because it says they are offensive and I think that they are offensive as well. And another piece of evidence is that "The San Diego State University Aztecs is a "strong tribal name" and is offensive to many people." I agree with this as well because it is offensive as well too.

Yes because is might be a financial loss but teams are probably already losing money to people because it is offensive to those people. Like because when Suzan Harjo said " Depicting us as characters is very toxic of Native Americans." And those people who stay statements like that to those teams, those teams who are offensive to those people can be offensive and then they will not support the team and not pay for that team.

They should change controversial school mascots because most people don't like it. One reason is because their names can be offensive to many people. Some evidence is that Pro football team Washington Redskins are offensive because they refer to African Americans as colored. And I agree this is offensive. Also, another piece of evidence is that the San Diego State University Aztecs is a "strong tribal name" and it is offensive to many people. And I agree with that because that is a strong tribal name and is very offensive as well. And another reason is that they can be stereotypical to many people. One piece of evidence is that the Atlanta Braves do their tomahawk chop and-and that is stereotypical to American Indians. I also agree with this because it is very stereotypical. And another piece of evidence is "representing us as characters is very toxic for Native Americans" Suzan Harjo tells JS. And another reason is they can be a sign of disrespect. One piece of evidence is groups supporting the Wisconsin law say Native Americans sports references are insulting. I agree with this because like the tomahawk chop that the Atlanta Braves did is insulting just like that. And another piece of evidence is a lot of Indian Mascots dress up in a cartoonish and is very disrespectful. I also agree with this. And my counterclaim is to the other side is They should change bad school mascots because they can be very offensive. One piece of evidence is the Washington Redskins are offensive and refer to African Americans as colored. And another piece of evidence is the SDSU Aztecs is offensive to many people. I agree with both of those pieces of evidence. In conclusion, they should change controversial mascots because they can be bad. With all the evidence I think that they should change them.
