A Pennsylvania school board on Thursday voted to restore the Native American warrior head logo that had been part of the district’s tradition until it was wiped away in 2021.
The Southern York County School District board voted 7-2 to bring back the warrior symbol after intense debate on the issue, according to WGAL-TV in Lancaster.
Douglas Brent, a parent whose children are high school students, was among those who spoke in support of restoring the logo.
“Nobody was trying to be demeaning to the local Indian tribes that were here,” he said.

Is it just me, or is it really difficult to find an image of the Indian Warrior logo? Btw, Yay x 1000!

Good. Now I want to see the Frito Bandito, Aunt Jemima, Uncle Ben, the Butter Indian girl and all the sports teams logos reinstated.

Then I hope they get around to Aliquippa, Pennsylvania aka FootballTown USA, where back when I was in high school there, we were not the demeaning name they have today, the "Quips," but the Indians, as the town itself was named for an Indian, Queen Aliquippa.

Yikes #4 ~ the city that produced Ditka and Dorsett shouldn't have a high school football team called the "Quips"!! I agree with you; that change should be revisited. The name is idiotic.

About 30 years ago, Eastern Michigan University's sports teams went by the name "Hurons" after a local "Native American" tribe. Lefties decided that this was an insult and proposed changing the mascot. The chief of the Huron nation wrote a letter to the school stating that they considered it an honor, not an insult, but of course, the enlightened ones knew better, so they changed it anyway.
It's good to see common sense prevail for once.

I am a Catholic and not a Joe Biden one. I've seen the San Diego Padre's mascot, the Swinging Friar a couple of times. He's a cartoonish Franciscan Friar with a baseball bat. I suppose I should be offended but I'm not. I think he's cute and the team name pays homage to the friars who established the California missions. Given the way that history is ignored today, there are times I think that the only way California children learn anything about the missions and the men who built them is when they see the friar mascot.

Yes, the rumbling gets louder and louder against cancel culture, DEI, CRT and all the other Marxist machinations. We have had enough. Let's MAGA.

Power to the people! The First People, the Politically Incorrect People, our Indigenous American People. Who, BTW are as much a part of my life as are my mom and my dad. So there! Farther south, nearly everybody in Tennessee is at least a little bit Choctaw! Old Andy Jackson ran them off to Oklahoma.

The socialist/communist/left wants Americans to be sheeple, but slowly but surely, in small ways, and in big ways (our independent media and our independent econmy), we are rebelling because we want to live in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. The left does not want others to be either free or brave.

Since Democrats started Slavery and the KKK, maybe it's time to rename them the "Haters"!

What I object to is "indigenous" people appropriating the title "Native Americans." I was born in Idaho in 11944, and I'm as "native" as anyone else born on this continent. Accept that fact, and we can sit down together and smoke a peace pipe.

My former high school in MA was and still is Algonquin High School and the mascot is the Tomahawk s.
As far as I know nothing has changed for the past 53 years.

Thanks poster #13. That's the same site I finally found the image. The difficulty in finding the image just goes to show the enemedia will not give up on their control freak ways even after the school board already voted to bring the image back for use at the high school. So called "journalists" these days are the epitome of maximum strength brainwashing, compliments of our wonderful school system. Good little commies all!

There are several, or more, college and professional teams that use the tomahawk cheer. I cannot do them justice, something akin to ohhhh- oh-ohhhhh, while moving one arm in a chopping motion. Many of these colleges and pros have told the politically correct, woke wackos to get a life.
