[Not Your Mascot @NotYourMascot]

Schools with race-based athletic identities are schools that teach children hands-on #racism.

Schools refusing to lose their racist mascots in the face of NA orgs, health orgs, civic orgs advice, are fully embracing formal racism in their curriculum.

Dear @Braves:

I'm sure the @CityofAtlanta is a lovely place with great people. However, you are not helping the city's image around the globe by embracing #racism.

It's past time you make a change. Sometimes that's what's truly BRAVE.

W.T. Actual F. is this garbage from @MLB??

[Jose de Jesus Ortiz @OrtizKicks]

Commissioner Rob Manfred says the Native Americans in the Atlanta Braves’ region are essentially OK with the Braves. Even if that were true, does #MLB have an obligation to be respectful to all Native Americans? Many, after all, think the Braves’ perpetuate racist stereotypes.
