This MLB Team’s Retro Logo Has Critics Crying Racism — Do You Agree?

The Atlanta Braves are going retro. And they are ticking a lot of people off in the process.

Major League Baseball will introduce new batting practice caps next spring and the Braves have chosen to reintroduce the team’s old “screaming Indian” logo, which is proving to be controversial. ESPN’s Uni Watch provides a sneak peak at the new design:

Atlanta Braves Screaming Indian Logo Sparks Controversy

(ESPN)

“The Braves first started using the logo in 1954 when they were based in Milwaukee. It was used in various capacities until 1989. The team stopped using it at least in part because of pressure from groups that find the use of Native American imagery on sports uniforms offensive and dehumanizing,” AOL’s Sporting News reports.

And the reaction from the web has been less than positive so far.

“Unfortunately, it turns out that the logo hasn’t been permanently mothballed. Disappointing… Grade F,” wrote Paul Lukas of ESPN’s Uni Watch.

The Atlantic Wire compiled a list of tweets reacting to the new logo:

Is the new logo offensive/racist or is this political correctness run amok?

      How is it racism to depict a race in art or logo form? They are not denigrating the natives one bit with this image. Liberals should all be deported, or given lead boots to swim in.

      What the liberals are saying is Indians should be ashamed of their heritage. That’s what liberalism is all about-closet elitism.

      I see nothing stereotypical about the image. It’s not like they exaggerated a noticeable feature (big lips, big nose, etc.). The Indian actually looks normal.

      Here’s what gets me on this as with alot of issues today. Notice by the looks of their photos,the tweeters are all young PC nincompoops, probably progressives that were not even born when the Braves used to wear this logo for years with no complaints of racism.

      The Braves used to have the indian in center field that came out & did a pow wow every time someone jacked a homer. Next thing they’ll be bitching abut how racist that is.wtf?

      Why doesn’t Ted Turner, the darling of the liberals just come completely clean regarding his personal desires and put his face on the team? Change the name to the “TTs” They play in Ted Turner Field, and damned near everything else in Atlanta is named Turner in one way or another. So, drive on down to Turner Field, pay a hundred dollars to park your car, two hundred per ticket to see the Ted Turners play in Turner Field, twenty bucks per box of Turner popcorn, and fifty bucks per cup of Turner beer. After all, he is the liberal’s liberal. Another one of those uber capitalists who constantly tells you liberal fools that he is okay because he hates capitalism.

Oh wait we need to get rid of all sports on tv as well because it’s not fair that I’ve always wanted to be an athlete but could not. Also time to rid of woman’s rights because its offensive to men. I could go on and on but at some point I might offend someone so I better stop now and never say another word. I need to limit me free speech because logos, movies,speech and opinions are all offensive.

      Not racist to me. But if the tribes, and progressives using them, want to make sure there are no images of Native Americans used anymore so be it. It will complete, with tribal complicity, the genocide of the Native American by erasing all references to them.

      I don’t believe the American Indian should be ashamed of their heritage. Allowing Indian logos shows a great diversity in our American history. The liberals simply hate anything that doesn’t fit into their monolithic blunt edge world. I’ve stopped even paying attention to the whiners and we will be better off when more people simply ignore these puveyors of Political Correctness. They don’t even deserve our time.

Nazi symbols, pictures of donkeys, eagles are humanist I hate the eagles they should change their name. It’s not ok to depict eagles as screaming. Garbage can all the pc crap. Racism is ignoring the heritage, giving ppl priority according to race rather than ability. It sets ppl up to fail when u put ppl in positions based on race rather than ability it’s not fair to the future failure or the good ppl who were over looked because they were the wrong color. So on behalf of the hiring committee I do now apologize to you barrack for putting u in a position which you are sure to fail at; I hope you don’t, were counting on you, but I fear putting you in that position which you are I’ll prepared to perform its already a bad situation and is sure to get much worse.

      Since when is wrong to put a face on any group of people? This logo is what I was taught that an Native Indian Brave looked like. Maybe not every Indian tribe looked like this particular brave but this is what my mind comes up with when I think of an Indian Brave. I think it is the highest form of praise to put a face to Indian Braves! Should we also take all pictures of Indians out of our history books? When a sports organization picks this kind of logo, I think they are saying that they think that these people are worthy of being known & stand out in history! Too bad we have so many people out there that want to make an issue out of a non-issue! Let’s try finding a way to stop the spending in Washington & worry more about how far our dollar is falling rather than something as stupid as worrying about a sport’s logo!!!

      I think we ought to insist on not offending our native brothers by naming our beloved sports teams after them.
      Instead, we ought to name our teams after less controversial subjects: how about the Marquette Missionaries, the Washington Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Buffalo Hunters or the Cleveland Cavalry. How could Native Americans possibly object since these mascots would be clearly intended toward white people?
      I know how incredibly offended I am as a part Norwegian, and part Irish American that the Minnesota Vikings and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish have chosen to besmirch my heritage.

      Worst, you bring up a good question. Is it offending most Native Americans, or only a few? Or is mainly a bunch of white people being offended for the Native Americans?

      One of the past (possibly still ongoing?) controversies, North Dakota’s “Fighting Soux” actually had support of the local tribe, but mass condemnation by people outside the state (most of the activists and MSN personalities condemning it being mayo on white bread white).

      It’s interesting for example the Florida State Seminoles for example apparently have close ties to the Seminole tribe, and have the tribes support.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Native_American_mascot_controversy

      Likewise

      “According to polling results published in Sports Illustrated in February 2002, “Although most Native American activists and tribal leaders consider Indian team names and mascots offensive, neither Native Americans in general nor a cross section of U.S. sports fans agree.[6] According to the article, “There is a near total disconnect between Indian activists and the Native American population on this issue.”[6]”

      “In 2004, a poll by the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania essentially confirmed the Sports Illustrated poll’s findings, concluding that 91% of the American Indians surveyed in the 48 states on the mainland USA found the name “Redskins” acceptable.[7]“

      For what its worth, there is a related topic in changing ethnic cultural names usually promoted by anglosphere as being for ‘PC’ reasons, but often they have no clue or idea what the people themselves want, or if they care. For example many academics insisting that all tribes of the north becalled Inuit (rather than Eskimo). Despite the fact that many tribes find that term an insult, and consider Eskimo to be ‘correct’ collective term for their tribes, because of certain cultural relations. Here is a good article that covers the subject.

      http://www.isteve.com/2002_name_game_inuit_or_eskimo.htm

      Another example it brings up;

      The fashion of renaming the Bushmen of Southwestern Africa as the “San” exemplifies many of the problems with the name game. University of Utah anthropologist Henry Harpending, who has lived with the famous tongue-clicking hunter-gatherers said, “In the 1970s the name ‘San’ spread in Europe and America because it seemed to be politically correct, while ‘Bushmen’ sounded derogatory and sexist.”

      Unfortunately, the hunter-gatherers never actually had a collective name for themselves in any of their own languages. “San” was actually the insulting word that the herding Khoi people called the Bushmen. (“Khoi” is the term used by those who were labeled “Hottentots” by the Dutch. As you can probably guess by now, “Khoi” means “the real people.”)

      Harpending noted, “The problem was that in the Kalahari, ‘San’ has all the baggag

      Both of these topics bring up a good point; Should people outside of a state or outside a tribe project their own ‘disgust’ of symbols or terms used in the state or tribe? Should local tribes decide for themselves if it is offensive or not to them, or what they they would like to be called?

      Are people outside the state or tribe projecting their own bias and bigotry, possibly even racism by not accepting, tolerating, or respecting the local cultures opinions and choices on the matter?

    Either they respect the Indian logo and the background enough to name the team and design the logo around it or…
    They picked a logo and name for which they wanted people to hate them, take on a totally negative racist attitude to a set group of individuals obviously to build themselves up by tearing others down, like liberal policies do. You know, do the politically correct thing, to build a fan base by bullying.

    At least, that is what liberals and the ACLU want you to think, of any sports team that gives accolades and respect to such a minority group. It cannot be that the Atlanta Braves respect such Indians and want to build up the spirit of such a group.

    How dare any sports group take that away from the all knowing and powerful left leaning leadership we have today. Liberals alone should have the right to discriminate, bury the past by not allowing free speech. Not for historical spirit and pride of a minority to be highlighted by a sports team making a group a symbol to admired, Minorities are only for liberals to take advantage of. After all, demeaning groups and causing division is where the real power lays in American power and law these days. That power belongs only in the liberal’s playbook.

    Only the government along with help from the ACLU has the right to rewrite history to their benefit, gain power by such causing controversy and division which allows them to further their own power base while others below them bicker and tear each other apar

      this is the bottom line and the only thing that matters, this country pretends to care about race issues, hog wash if this were a black issue you can bet teams like the washington redskins would change their logo and team name tomarrow, but its just about some enjuns with no clout and can not make a financial impact on anyone so noone gives a crap about them and that is the sad thing. these jerks pretend to want ethics or race equality but only bow to black demands because it hurts their imiage or finances so they pretend to care, teams like washington more or less told the native americans to get lost they dont matter if this was blacks complaining the whole nation would be agast and demand action and it would be changed in a matter of seconds aaaaaa

      Bill Cosby’s son had a reverse mohawk. He said so.

    I’m not offended. Are you offended? Anybody offended by the image of Col.Sanders on a bucket of chicken? Anybody offended by an image of Wendy on a Hamburger shop sign? Anybody offended by the likeness of Kenny Davis on a jar of barbecue sauce? Good grief, get over yourself.

      Just like we’re all socialists now, we’re all racist now too. How dumb.

    Progs! give the ACLU a chance to get their lawsuit together before getting offended for the Indians. The PC progs are calling racism and they have less Indian blood than Elizabeth Warren, which is OzerO.

    It’s like when Corn Hole West assimilates himself with Indians. Gay people, Asians, and Pacific Islanders to gang up on the White Person. When you, me, he, and errbody knows he only cares about the poor black kids. Corn hole don’t care about know vanilla he care about chocolate. That’s what we have come down to in Obozo’s Bizzaro world.

    All the Progressive Left has done in the last 50 years is to teach people to actively LOOK for something to exploit. An image on a baseball cap hurts no one yet a whole group of people supported by other “professional victims” is using it to make very hateful charges (racism) against the team.

    If someone wants to find anything (racism, sexism, ism-ism) they can. That’s the biggest problem with today’s version of the Salem Witch Hunts.

    I never have viewed such logos as “dehumanizing”. I think there are a whole lot of folks out there who just enjoy complaining about things. The best we can do to help them grow up is to tell them to get over it and get on with it. Bring on the screaming Indian. Reminds me of Harry Belafonte singing the Day-O song.

    The outcry lends credence to why they white folks were called “tenderfoot” back in the day.

    What the heck is so offensive about that?
    If I was an American Indian, I’d be proud to have that on a baseball cap.
