Skoufis & Assemblyman Brabanec Urge Latitude in Allowing Indiginous Names for Sports Teams

ejreporter

Pointing out that much is lost from, changing a well-known sports team's name,

in some instances a name that has become known and instilled pride to both the athletes and their supporters for decades. In addition, some of these names were never intended to be perjorative, and others, like "Crusaders" might be heard as negative by some and positive by others.


Skoufis said that this cleansing of names is "a bridge too far", and teams should be permitted to at least keep their names, if images and references to indigenous culture have been removed. .
