11 school districts on Long Island to change mascott after vote

School districts on Long Island with Native American mascots have until 2024-2025 school year to change their mascots after Regents vote.
NEW YORK (WABC) -- The Board of Regents has unanimously voted to prohibit the use of indigenous names, mascots and imagery in all New York public schools, which will affect 11 school districts on Long Island.

All logos and mascots will need to be changed by the end of the 2024-2025 school year.

Schools that do not comply could become ineligible for state aid.

The provision will not apply to any school officer or employee who is a member of a tribal nation and is "utilizing or promoting an Indigenous name, logo, or mascot of such tribal nation."

Yeah we need to end the normalization of that kind of casual racism.

if the average person claiming to be native american wasn't in fact a full cac like this woman

Among any community of people, there is a small segment of frontline activists pushing back against outsiders disrespecting them. Only a small segment, then they gain momentum from "average" members at times for different reasons.
Frontline members from their groups have fought for decades against this.

The false flagging professor has nothing to do with this, nor do the people actually of those descents who don't visibly appear to be indigenous.

Only a matter of time before a similar ruling happens in Jersey, if it hasn't already.

So, if any of y'all went to Weequahic..

This doesn’t offend me, I think it’s reasonable. Hopefully the Weequahic Indians pick a cool new mascot. Have a few relatives and a bunch of family friends who graduated from
There.

White people fight the DUMBEST fukking battles. Hearts and prayers if someone kicked down the door and blew 20 kids away, but fight tooth and nail to fight for a damn mascot. Not even seeing how/why white folks saying "Once a chief, always a chief" is a bad look.

On a side note...I love when female reporters use the "Anchor voice"...It makes me horny as fukk.:noah:

Bro this ain't it. Like someone mentioned earlier in the thread Native activists been trying to stop these practices since before most the site was evening born.

So to dismiss this as not only White person battle but a dumb battle too is ignorant.

What the fukk are you talking about? I'm talking about white people fighting to keep the name instead of listening to the concerns of the native community and respecting their wishes.

Ya'll nikkas man...:snoop:
