McGill University said its teams will no longer be called Redmen:
it's an offensive term to Indigenous people. "Canadians," said the
Washington Redskins. "Here it's an honorific."
I'm American, and I personally don't use the nickname of Washington's NFL team.
ReplyDeleteLike Kelly, I won't use Washington's nickname either. Guess it will take another generation and a new owner to fix it. Good for McGill, they get it.
ReplyDeleteSadly, I think you are right, Gary. It will take some time.
