Why?Town

Would that councilman from Cleveland prefer if we stop mentioning that indians ever existed? It's not like Chief Wahoo was being portrayed as someone that would scalp other indians (or anyone really). Maybe the team should be named to honor victims of indians instead, the Cleveland Custers has a nice ring to it.
Maybe every team in every sport should have a name like the washington football team has used the past year,  The city sport Team.

The Cleveland Baseball Team. No I don't like that, They are now the Cleveland Custers to me.

Considering that land-o-lakes dropped their indian lady and aunt jemima (different race) is gone I wonder if they'll ever be happy. Oh, and what are they going to do about Charley Staples?

This is an interview with a representative of the American Indian Movement, Ohio Chapter, prior to a Cleveland City Council meeting in 2015.  A Cleveland councilman is also interviewed.
