The Kansas City Chiefs will face the San Francisco 49ers for Super Bowl LIV. Chiefs fans regularly use a “tomahawk chop” to urge on their beloved team: Is it offensive?https://nyti.ms/390n6yn

This is literally nails on a chalkboard, the chop itself is very demeaning to Indigenous people, their story/history and their continued struggle. If Native peoples tell you that they are offended, and that this is racist then it is the exact opposite of honouring them.https://twitter.com/Chiefs/status/1223668499039563776 …

when people say it is not a big deal, it is, this is our life, we have to deal with this and it is stressful. Would other People of Color put up with any other stereotypes of them? NOOOO

Two decades of social science research showing native themed mascots harm Indigenous kids. The
@APA calling for the retirement of logos since 2005. But sure@chiefs Your fans dressing up in racist costumes is “honoring”.#NotYourMascotPrikaži ovu nitHvala. Twitter će to iskoristiti za poboljšanje vaše vremenske crte. PoništiPoništi -

Articles by Native people in
@NBCNewsTHINK@voxdotcom &@nytopinion today on the harm of Native mascots. Many more cited in other publications. 60+ yrs protesting racism that hurts our kids. Can you hear us?

I don't watch the NFL but I will pray and support the 49ers TO THE MAX because you continue to disrespect Indigenous Peoples with this shit.

I grew up in Kansas. My high school mascot was the "Indians". Growing up, we were taught not to question the genocide and erasure these sports teams embodied. This is disgusting. This is not just a game, this is racism.https://twitter.com/Chiefs/status/1223668499039563776 …

Fellow black people, we hate being racialized as we should. Let's make sure we are consistent and have that same energy regarding the Indigenous community. Let's not racialize them and let's not stand for others doing it either!

For the first time in my life, I’m not going to watch the SuperBowl. Partly due to the New England era robbing the NFL of creativity, but mostly racist crap like this.https://twitter.com/chiefs/status/1223668499039563776 …

The Kansas City Chiefs' "Arrowhead Chop" chant isn't a tribute. It's racist.https://www.vox.com/first-person/2020/2/1/21115858/super-bowl-2020-chiefs-kansas-city …

NFL's Kansas City Chiefs, one of several American sports teams that copy Native American imagery and traditions, will take the field for Super Bowl LIV. How did the team, which was founded in 1959, come to have such a loaded name?https://cnn.it/2Ol7gXd
