   The Washington Redskins announced Monday that they will change   
   their team name and logo after about 87 years of using it, in   
   the wake of corporate and public pressure to ditch the moniker   
   over racial connotations.   
      
   The Navajo Nation put out a statement on the retirement of the   
   Redskins name.   
      
   “July 13, 2020 is now a historic day for all Indigenous peoples   
   around the world as the NFL Washington-based team officially   
   announced the retirement of the racist and disparaging   
   ‘Redskins’ team name and logo,” Navajo Nation President Jonathan   
   Nez wrote. “This change did not come about willingly by the   
   team’s owners, but by the mounting pressure and advocacy of   
   Indigenous peoples such as Amanda Blackhorse, and many other   
   warriors who fought long and hard for this change.”   
      
   The statement continued: “We strongly encourage the NFL   
   Washington organization to rename their team in such a way that   
   truly honors and respects the First Americans of this country.   
   Renaming the team ‘Code Talkers’ to honor the Navajo Code   
   Talkers, and other tribal nations who used their sacred language   
   to help win World War II, would set the team on a path to   
   restoring its reputation and correcting the historical   
   misrepresentation of Indigenous peoples.”   
      
   The Washington franchise has yet to announce a new team name.   
      
   "$BITCHE$".   
      
   You fucking pussies!
