Listen Again: Reaction to Washington NFL Team Retiring The R-Word & Racist Mascot
*A warning that this episode does contain content that references historic recounts of violence against Native people, and specifically a historic account of sexual violence against Native women. On July 13th, it was announced that Washington Football Team would retire their racist name and logo. While this change is a victory, it does not eliminate the racial injustices faced by the Native American community. The battle has been fought in and out of court for decades. Joining to discuss are Amanda Blackhorse, along with Mojave American Poet Natalie Diaz, Olympic Gold Medalist Billy Mills, and Arizona State University Professor of Indigenous education and justice, Bryan Brayboy.
