Why I Hate Redskins, But Love American Indians - Stanford Indian Mascot
Below is a video from Myrton Running Wolf, a Ph.D. Candidate at Stanford University, on a local response to national issue of the Native mascots - "Resurrecting the [Stanford] Indian Mascot" project.
Stanford's Indian mascot was banned in 1972 for its offensive mockery of American Indian cultures. However, every year, many pre-Cardinal alumni start up again. Some arrogantly continue to parade their Stanford Indian sweaters, headbands, and Halloween-like makeup to campus events.
