[quote=Anonymous]Despite vocal and legal action from Native American groups and scholars, the majority of people surveyed on the subject do not find the name offensive. Following the 1992 Super Bowl protests, the Washington Post posted a survey in which β89 percent of those surveyed said that the name should stay.β In a study performed by the National Annenberg Survey, Native Americans from the 48 continental U.S. states were asked βThe professional football team in Washington calls itself the Washington Redskins. As a Native American, do you find that name offensive or does it not bother you?β In response, ninety percent replied that the name is acceptable, while nine percent said that it was offensive, and one percent would not answer.
