From Quanah Parker BrightmanPosted at Censored News
It's time for Major League Baseball to acknowledge and HONOR the Native American Baseball Players who broke the color barrier 48 years BEFORE the great Jackie Robinson !
We strongly encourage the leadership of Major League Baseball to recognize the demeaning nature of American Indian mascots as used by the Cleveland Indians and Atlanta Braves; to recognize that these images are stereotypes that portray American Indian people in a negative light; and recognize that it the removal of these mascots are beneficial to the American Indian community.
