Native American group threatens Washington Commanders with boycott over name change
Story by Asher Notheis •1d
A Native American group has threatened to boycott the Washington Commanders football team if the team does not revert to its older title, the Redskins.
The group, Native American Guardians Association, has asked the team to change its name back to the Redskins in a letter dated Monday. The team decided to change its name in 2020, settling with the new name, the Commanders, in 2022.
"Should we need to encourage a national boycott similar to what happened with Anheuser Busch which is now down $27 billion (note, not one brick thrown, not one highway blocked, not one bridge burned) - WE WILL DO JUST THAT," the letter read.
The group's threat of a boycott comes after Anheuser-Busch, the owner of Bud Light and several other beer brands, reported a nearly $400 million loss in the second quarter of this year. The loss in revenue has been cited by many to be from a boycott of Anheuser-Busch following a partnership that Bud Light did with transgender activist Dylan Mulvaney.
In its letter to the Washington Commanders, signed by Eunice Davidson, the group's founder and president, the group points to a poll that found that 90% of Native Americans did not find the Redskins name offensive. The group also pointed to how other sports teams, including the Kansas City Chiefs and the Chicago Blackhawks, have kept their Native American-inspired names while recognizing that the names carry "an obligation of honor and respect."
"At this moment in history, we are formally requesting that the team revitalize its relationship with the American Indian community by (i) changing the name back to 'The Redskins' which recognizes America's original inhabitants and (ii) using the team's historic name and legacy to encourage Americans to learn about, not cancel, the history of America's tribes and our role in the founding of this Great Nation," the letter read.

An online petition asking the Commanders to change its name back to the Redskins was also cited in the letter, which as of Tuesday morning has over 67,000 signatures.
UPDATE: As of Saturday, June 16, university officials have replaced Traveller’s headstone with another mable plaque absent of any reference to Robert E. Lee or the United Daughters of the Confederacy. The university also said it will replace the Lee House garage marker.]
Tourists, visitors, and students will no longer be greeted by a plaque commemorating the last home of Traveller, the horse which served Robert E. Lee during and after the Civil War. The plaque, formerly affixed to the Washington Street wall of the Lee House stable, was removed over the weekend. Pointing out the stable’s significance, it had been an established part of the campus milieu for nearly 100 years.
University officials took down two other plaques across campus over the weekend, with plans to take down another.
The second and third plaque denoted two rooms in Payne Hall: one where President Robert E. Lee took his oath of office in 1865, and the other where his office was from 1865-68, before moving to the newly-constructed chapel.
The final plaque, placed over Traveller’s gravesite outside Lee Chapel, National Historic Landmark, is expected to be removed soon, according to Drewry Sackett, executive director of communications.
This is an interrogation take and one that's probably rather common. I've seen several articles over the past few years where Native Americans have said they weren't offended at all by Indian names for teams.
