Re: In memory of our REDSKINS

Good post about "cancel culture" and how there will always be a group offended by something somewhere. That we as a society shouldnt conform in mass because a group of 8 people in Nebraska think a certain way.

I would hope you would agree that progress and the urge to constantly get better, get smarter, get more aware is inherent and needed. Problem becomes what one group thinks is a reasonable discussion is viewed by another as asinine and a silly "cancel culture" reaction. Who decides what is reasonable and fair to discuss?

The term "redskins" being a slur is a reasonable discussion to have amongst adults. I think we have had on this forum, for the most part, adult and reasonable discussions on the name and the name change.

The "redskins" name change is a good example of society reasonably progressing. Not all change is bad. America has come a long way since the 1700s and we still have a long way to go.
