I don't even see how the term "Redskin" is racist. It's a descriptive term that could be used in a prideful manner.

For example... a group of Native Americans who take pride in their skin color and their heritage could call themselves the "red skins". Is the name "Black Panthers" racist against black people because it has "black" in the name? Of course not.

Just because you are talking about skin color doesn't make it racist.

Something is only racist if it is intended to be racist.


Bingo. Let's not forget that it was the Native Americans themselves who originated the term.
