The Nepean Redsk*ns football club’s will officially announce today that they will #changethename of the club’s team. Props to Ian Campeau, (DJ NDN , of A Tribe Called Red), who filed a complaint with Ontario Human Rights Tribunal three weeks ago asking them to order the National Capital Amateur Football Association to change the names of all Redsk*ns teams in its association and to scrap logos that depict the cartoon figure of a native man. “If it was the Blackskins or Yellowskins this wouldn’t even be a conversation,” Campeau told the Ottawa Citizen. “But for the Redsk*ns I have to file a human rights complaint. It’s ludicrous.” The real question here (although a good one) is NOT: “Why didn’t we, as Canadians, #changethename ourselves long ago?” The REAL question is: "Why was it there in the first place????" Wishing everyone a Blessed Friday! Meegwetch, Garth changethename.ca
