I agree that the names are offensive and should be changed. This debate has been going on for so long. I remember when I was growing up, the mascot of a high school in my hometown was and still is the "Warriors". Nothing has changed. But I suppose there are other questions we could ask. Is it because "the squeaky wheel gets the oil"? Is there not enough media attention? Are other minority groups too busy pushing their own agendas to be concerned with another group's plight? Or is it that enough people simply don't care?
