From non-verbal racial insensitivity, such as donning a cheap plastic replica of sacred Native warbonnets (“headdresses”), to outright screaming racial slurs directly to the protesters, to, in one instance, spitting in the direction of the group - which included Native American children. “Get a life!” “Get a job!” “What are you gonna do, scalp me?” “Savages!” When activists responded that they have lives, jobs, and don’t scalp anyone, the responses were usually, “Whatever,” an eye roll, or simply hurrying past. Some argue the word “redskin” is inoffensive. However, Native and skin was bound into book covers, scalps were sold for money or were gifted to the king of England, stretched over hoops by the colonists. The Washington R*dsk*ns’ team name is equivalent to naming a team the “Selma Lynchings.” indianapolisrecorder/opinion/article_8a42329c-7bcb-11e4-851d-f7635e6b95f2.html
