This person would need to spend time with leaders of the Native American community and figure out what kind of out reach they can do with the media. This isn’t rocket science. There is an issue of name and imagery Used by the chiefs. Ignoring it now is the absolute worse thing you can do. If and when this issue reaches a boiling point Clark would be in a good position to roll out the head of this new department and allow him or her to speak to what the chiefs are doing. If your not two steps ahead you’ve all ready list the race. Clark can afford millions if that’s what it takes to build a bridge between him the Native American community and the media.
No. Actually he doesn't. Clark doesn't need to spend a dime helping you get over your white guilt.

Why?

Taking offense is the easiest, least objective, way to assert oneself anywhere.

I don't defer to fundamentalists who are offended by 'blasphemy' and 'obcenity' on the airwaves or in the movie theaters.

I don't defer to 'Karens'

Comedians don't and shouldn't defer to hecklers.

If there is evidence that a name or action was instituted due to malice or disparagement, those who instituted the name or action would be well-served to exercise introspection regarding their actions.

But if there is no malicious intent, automatic deferral to the offended just breeds an industry of offense-taking.

Washington will change the name of their football team within two years. Hunt would be wise to get out in front of this, regardless of your opinion on my opinion.

Okay, I'll start compiling the names. Through Post 50, I'm seeing these. I'm trying to winnow out the obvious joke names, but I'll be charitable if I can't tell.

Repeat: This is only through Post 50. I'll keep working through them as I find time

Nope it doesn’t. I get it. Chiefs named for bartle any ways. Doesn’t matter. Perception is reality.

Reality is reality, perception is an opinion.

Look at your signature - you view everything thru a racial lense. Don't try to dismiss me because I'm right.
