What's Native People's Problems?
Chris Brown: I did not realize until very recently that like sports teams that are the warriors that that was basically a euphemism for previous Native names. It's ever it's ever the culture that radiates out or the way that rival fans will use hate speech right when they're cheering against those teams, which ends up being hate racist speech against Native Americans. The turkey feathers, the drum, the tomahawk chop, all these things that mimic and mock Native peoples has nothing to do with anything related to traditional Native culture.
