The usage of Native American names are very sacred and meaningful, however, today many of them are used to represent sports teams and the names of toys.
Not only is the usage of these names dehumanizing towards Native Americans, it is also racist and stereotypical. All Native American names should not be used to signify a sports team or a kind of toy.
We should respect the Indians for all they had encountered and show their value and importance in history.
Immediately retire all usage of Native American names in sports promotion.
