Racialized Mascots...where do you stand?

by Ryan White
Published 1 days ago.

Hey all,Sorry to be a bit late with this,…but I've been thinking for a few days as to how to defend using native American or other racialized macots. I guess I don't get it, how can you think it's ok to represent another person's ethnicity by using a mascot? So for this week I'd like you to think about it and let me know if you are with me, or disagree? Of course you can always go with your opinion, but either way I want you to defend your position with evidence. In other words, if you agree with me it's not enough to say so, and if you disagree, I won't immediately take points off, I just want you to defend your opinion with strong backup. Here's a video that presents my point of view, and is required for the final exam, but you still may choose to disagree. Here's the info to get in and watch the video.
